Which of these two full towers would you prefer?

[KarateHottie93]

Just very curious as these are arguably the two best affordable full towers to come out in the past few months...at least when you factor in all of the amazing water cooling support, build quality, and cable management that each one offers for the price, that is. The X71 is on top and the Panzer Max is below. Appreciate all replies and votes.

X71

The Panzer Max has some nice edges/architectural designs to it that I think set it apart from the X71/ other cases that are out there.

Mind if I ask why? Aesthetics or because the Panzer Max only supports dual 360's, where as the X71 also supports that + a 480?

Panzer, if only for the name. I also like the rounded edges, shiny pieces, and the more Sci-fi/mechanical look. Also, larger "full case" window makes me happy. No half-way glass, to hide crappy PSU/cable management. (at least, hiding it isn't that obvious)

 

*EDIT: it's late, fixed another typ0.

Based on looks the Panzer. especially if it was in white

[AresKrieger]

Looks wise the bottom one

 

Features wise the top one (this is the more important thing to me btw so x71 wins)

 

Price wise neither 140 is way outside what I'd be willing to spend on a case

Because the X71 is smexy

x71 design is simple. just a classic tower with some vent holes. I would rather get this

If a V71 would be considered, I'd choose it over the two mentioned, but if it has to be between these two, I'd take the Panzer

Im using v51 and im pretty happy with it. 71 is its big brother. Good watercooling support. Good ventilation. Good quality note full steel.

I will make a case before I spend over a 100 bucks on one, looks are secondary

Bro I build in a BitFenix Neos like that for some one I knew once. It is the worst tower I have ever touched in terms of build quality.

[shadowbyte]

x71 for sure

the other looks like a reject from a sci-fi film festival

Only listed these two as they are both fairly new on the market.

Newer doesn't always equate to better especially when referring to looks. Personally don't like the X71 design (admittedly subjective opinion) so the spy suitcase wins this duel for me.

Oh yeah it was very sexy lol. It's solid once put together but just building in it...like it was such a hassle.

 

I emailed the company about some missing screws though and I must say, they are the best to deal with. They shipped me extra PCI-E covers for all slots since the originals are punch outs. It was just them going the extra mile out of kindness.

You know the Neos is pretty much the flimsiest case ever? Sneezing in its general direction tends to dent it.

I know bro. If it was about best in this price range, I'd be listing the Luxe and 780T also.

 

I'm simply just listing these two because they are new as I've said, and haven't been discussed much. Plus nobody really owns them yet to form a more biased opinion.

Not everyone has money to buy expensive case. If I had that much I would go for h440 and some cool cases too. It's the price tag
