My case has a short in it, and its not really big enough anyway so I am going to buy a new one.

I have this booked marked from somebody suggesting it earlier in the thread Phanteks Innovative Computer Hardware Design

Anybody has any other suggestions? Looking for a aesthetically pleasing case with RBG. Full tower or a big mid tower.

id wait for the cooler master h500p front mesh redesign. phanteks make great cases, i just dont like cases that have a closed front intake. if i wanted a new case with rgb in mind, thats what i would choose.

just bought a acer helios 300 for $400 brand new on craigslist. wasnt even in market for a laptop but shyt was too good to pass up. gave my toshiba satellite 4k laptop to my sister.

this acer laptop is fukking amazing. the screen is butt but the gaming performance is unreal.

The computer is almost unusable at this point...just cuts off if its moved even slightly. I need to buy a case within the next week.

Anybody else have any suggestions? @Ciggavelli

I had a Phantek case with my old build. To be honest, the airflow wasn't that great with 2 GPUs. It looked cool though...:manny:

In the past I've had several Corsair cases. The 750D is a good case. Good airflow, pleasing aesthetics, etc.

Speaking of cases, I love the "tilted mobo" shyt. I run 2 Titan X Pascals, and that shyt has never even got close to 80c (barely hits 70c, to be honest). The airflow gains from having an eschewed mobo is amazing. I've never had such good temps on air, ever. @dc007 look into this shyt, if you're doing 2 GPUs. If not, then just get a Corsair 750D.

@The War Report posted some expensive, but really good looking, "race car" case. I can't remember what it was called (he posted it like a few months ago). If you got the money, that case looks like the shyt. However, it is oddly shaped and you have to use the PSU they provide with the case. Not a humongous deal, but if you are into PSUs you might think that is insane.

I only have 1 GPU....do you think it would be an issue with the Phantek....i'm running a 1080 if that matters.

These are probably the 2 cases I will choose between....i'm assuming the 750D can be turned into RGB with the led strips I seen...or are those case specific?

if you want the 750D get the airflow edition.


here are some other great cases as well. remember, airflow is king and if u want your shyt to last you got to have good airflow even if you have other components cooled by liquid cooler.

I have the computer in a position where it seems to be staying on at the moment....if it stays on for a few days I might try to hold out on the h500p

Any idea on when it should come out? Couldn't find anything online about a release date.

Nah, with 1 GPU, you're fine. I'd get a phantek case then. The tempered glass is :wow:

You know if its possible to hook my PSU directly to my MOBO so I can bypass the case all together? I'd like to avoid having to rush and buy a case but this shyt just cut off again :francis:
