Best cube case?

[iggybo]

Hey guys,

 

I´m building a new rig as my old one is...old. So new build, new case.

Specs aside, what are your suggestions as for cube cases (so dual chamber cases) apart from the obvious Carbide Air Series?

Please keep it below 200$, as otherwise I haz no money for internals...

 

Cheers

IDK if this is what your looking for but you could try this - Coolermaster Elite 110 Compact Mini-ITX

 

Linus even made a video on it -

Looks nice. It´s Micro-ATX but I´ll have a look, thanks.

Sometimes you can find the Streacom DB4 Fanless Chassis for $200 or less.  However, you may need to buy their heatpipe extensions and possibly the PSU, too.  Of course that would most likely fall into the cost of 'internals'.

I should have clarified: ATX formfactor.

Big is not bad. I just like the cube form.

So kinda like the Carbide Air 540 or 740.

How about the Thermaltake Core X9 E-ATX?

 

EDIT:  found a link for it, too: http://www.thermaltakeusa.com/products-model.aspx?id=C_00002562

I think a few of the thermaltake core series can be cubeish. Not really dual chamber though. I have a x9 sitting around. I think the x7 is still atx. 

 

Id go with the 540 myself. Was gonna step up to the 740 for all the extra features but doesn't look all that great.

I'm thinking the same. The 540 actually looks more versatile and like the overall better option to go for.

The only problem is only being able to hold 2 3.5 hhds. Wasn't a big concern for me. I did buy a triple hdd caddy and put it in the 5.25 drive bays. Had to take that out for the 360 rad I placed in the back.
