Another case decision thread!

Yup! Another one! I'm looking to get a real roomy case, my next build is going to be built with a gigabyte 990fxa Ud5. Full atx. I do intend to go two way sli/crossfire and water cooling.

The thing I'm really looking for is something that's going to give me room to work with, a window, and space to make it look beautiful.

I'd really like one that has removable or modular bays, and room on the backside for tube routing and possibly ssd mounts. Any suggestions?

I still like AMD more.

Go balls to the wall and get a caselabs case. :D

 

In all seriousness though, if you do have the money for one, you really can't go wrong with a CL case just because of the shear size, flexibility, and customizability.

So many suggestions! 900D and Enthoo look nice so far. Now to look at all the other suggestions. That's no reason for others to not post, though. I'll look at them all. This is going to be a researched build.

IN WIN GRone looks really nice, and feeds my love of space ship theme(it looks three part, leave me alone), but doesn't look roomy enough.

The NZXT 810's window comes out over the optical bays. It just looks off.

The Cosmos II is nice looking, and goes on the list with the 900D and Enthoo(pro for now, looking at the others).

Next, I look at the CM Atorm line and the other(non 900D) Corsairs. Then I'll look at CaseLabs.

Do you have a budget on a case if not I know of a really nice one but it will cost you a small fortune..

 

It is one Linus used for his sub zero build it is this one here..I doubt you want to spend this much on case but it would be nice to have..
