Yeah, thought about it. It's currently a distant 2nd to the FT02 for my system. I'm hoping that there's another case that better meets my earlier criteria & is smaller & has more easily accessible filters for cleaning.

have u tried taking a look at what lian li has to offer?

i prefer them over silverstone's steel cases


the PC-P50 has been catching my attention lately and is being sold for RM699 HERE

u can also use that thread to check out prices....though unfortunately theyre a lil expensive as theyre the new distributor prices...

the old distro which was ATE was actually cheaper....u might still be able to get from ATE in lowyat plaza...but itll most likely be last stocks...theyre still the place to go for Lian Li though

Can you be more specific - ie what cases should I be looking at from LianLi that meet my criteria?

dont limit urself to the PC-P50 (though i find it to be a good case, especially with the 100% tool-less installation)

go to the thread i linked and see the cases within ur budget and google them for reviews and judge for urself...

there are other lian li sellers in garage sales...u can use their threads to check out prices and models as well


oh....n check out lancool k-62 as well....based on the P50 but with a better HDD cage....and about half the price....unfortunately, its steel.

Will do, but like I said my priorities are:

*Minimal dust - ie, must have filters in place on all intakes - easily accessible for cleaning as well
*Size - no bigger than the FT02 (212 x 497 x 616 mm)
*Silent (not stealthy, reasonable noise is OK)
*Cool (again reasonable, I'm planning on purchasing better heat sinks/ cooler rather than relying on stock functionality)
