now haven't got out yet...
let's wait till next month...

Mates, I'm collecting votes here. Either CM 690 II Advance or CM Storm Scout I'll be laying my hands on. Their price are kind of similar. Lotsa people asked me to go for the 690 II Advance. Hmm

Still haven't decided whether it's m-ATX or normal ATX instead. Wanna assemble a new desktop =)

my vote goes to the advance

Better air flow system? The storm scout front panel there features 4 usb ports, yet the casing looks attractive. That's why it gave me a headache issue there.

690 II Advance. Hmm Too bad it doesn't come with side window. Haih. Don't feel like doing the modification

CM 690II Advanced got side window version

690 II advanced is definitely a good choice

cm storm scout kinda lesser space compare to cm 690 II advance which will affect a little in air flow system. CM 690 II advance has Sata Docking some more. kinda worth the price compare to cm storm scout.

Anybody knows if the CoolerMaster HAF X is out in Malaysia yet? My first choice would be the Corsair Obsidian 800D. Which is the most elegant casing out there without all those lala LEDs and lala-ish design but it's SO DAMN EXPENSIVE. I think CZONE has it in its pricelist at RM1.5k

try Silverstone FT02 ? take the version without transparent side window panel. looks cool too n the price should b cheaper than Obsidian 800D.

Thanks for the recommendation. FT02 is not bad but I'm kinda sold on a full tower case =S and having USB3 ports is a must too so actually that rules out the Obsidian 800D. I hope the hideous monster that is HAF X will be brought in soon =) along with GTX 460.

Actually the more I read and watch youtube videos about the Obsidian 800D, the more willing I get to buy it. -.- ..... Stupid lust for inanimate objects. Please donate to me so I can seek treatment from CZONE or Viewnet to be cured.

Amazon lists the Obsidian 800D for USD270 which is about RM900. That's about RM600 cheaper than in Malaysia. ZOMG. Anyway I could import this case for cheaps? =)

that is what i had in mind as well last time.. but after checking the shipping (not tax included yet).. totally changed my mind..

HAF-X should be coming in soon imo..

Anyone could recommend me a casing that has the following characteristic?

-Have a cover to cover optical drive
-Able to hide most of the cable at the back of the casing
-Full Tower Size
-Looks cool
-<RM500

Silverstone raven rv01 heheh

but the price....

Hmm, how much is RV01?

Btw, RV02 doesn't have a cover to cover the optical drive right?

Is there any other case?

RV01 ~ RM 6xx

Yup, RV02 doesn't have front cover or bay door.

Yes, try to refer here as references:

Hey guys, just want to know UPS100 vs Elite 430, which 1 is better???

Elite 430 better

Hmm, I am wondering if there is a case that looks like CM 690 II Advanced and have RV01 bay door and the mobo stage is removable?.. and the price is reasonable...

Erm guys.. wanna ask abit..

In between HAF932 and Silverstone Raven RV01.. which one would be more reliable? in terms of performance?

Also, considering HAF X is around the corner, do you think it would be wise getting a Raven RV01?

does the CM Usp 100 come with a 550w PSU?
