I just upgraded my comp and went with a Cooler Master HAF 912. So far it's great. For $55 i can't complain at all. Wanted something that looked at least OK with good cooling and decent cable management and i got all three and more.

I am using an old school (circa 2004) Thermaltake Armor full tower case. Last year I cut it up and started modding the hell out of it.

This is how it started...cpu water cooled, single 240 radiator in the front, pump on the bottom etc etc.

This is how it sits now...cpu/gpu water cooled, 360 radiator up front, 240 radiator out the bottom, five Delta fans, holes cut in mobo tray for better wire management, top cut off and new dome welded for more exhaust fans, new door and window, a lot of ultra flat black paint, etc etc, etc....its a tank and has been dubbed the "Heavy Armor" as it weighs over 50 lbs fully assembled.

Just picked up an Abee Acubic T20R. Now I just need to find some decent items to stuff in it! If you haven't seen Abee cases before they are of beautiful quality.

Awesome work!
The ultra flat black and matte-like tubing make it look very industrial!

Welder, engine hoist, RX-7 in the background? You got to be a car enthusiast too.

That would be an accurate assessment.

I recently got this one. Literally best computer investment yet. Looks like a mini-fridge, but it is a semi-screwless build that makes it REAL convenient to do maintenance.

I've always wanted a 5U rackmount case, as a desktop.

5U would accomodate a 120mm exhaust fan without difficulties, and you could probably set it up as six 5.25" bays + 2 3.5 external, or a bunch of hard discs

I have an Antec900 that's been good to me since early 2007...but I'd like something that is quieter and easier to work with.  I've done a few mods for routing cables, but i find this makes cleaning and removing parts a chore.  Looks nice, though!  I'm considering one of the sub $150 model Lian Li cases, or the Antec Solo II.  Something simple, mostly metal and frosty :smow:

I have the following cases.

Actively in use:
Corsair 650D - Current favorite.
Cooler Master 690 II Advanced
Antec 300
Generic Ebay HTPC case

Currently owned but not in use:
Antec 900
Lian Li PC-60
Stacks of Dell/HP cases.

I am also planning on building my own case for my workshop.  It's going to be another adventure and I look forward to the challenge!

I'm also a HAF 912 user!  Not the prettiest case, but I was building a budget PC and the HAF 912 was a great deal at 45USD (rebate from Newegg).

That 800D was the case I was really keen on getting but it cost the same as my mobo & i5 2500k combo here in Singapore so I decided to go with a corsair 600t (white) and start work on pimping it out lol.

I have a Lian Li Q-11. I only use Lian Li cases, they're the best.
