yes they're good, can also consider Xigmatek's Helios and some Raidmax chassis at about the same price, BitFenix Merc is also a budget oriented one wink.gif all good chassis

Budget chassis? how much are you planning to spend? cause RM300 is still a budget... and about the watercooling.. is is an AIO or a custom loop?

Any of them is a good buy actually smile.gif I suggest taking a look at other brands as well before you make your choice, you're missing Xigmatek, BitFenix, Silverstone, Raidmax, Corsair, Antec... all are good brands wink.gif

thanks a lot for suggestion! its been a few days and I've modified my budget a lot cry.gif

I'm only looking for a case that I can make sure its airy enough.. The option for a top handle is no longer feasible.. pushing everything to the stuff that really matters, CPU n GPU.

I'm currently looking at the aerocool GT advance casing... advert says there are 2 12cm fans, front and back. Is it possible for me to install more fans to ensure more air flow?

aerocool ferrum white also has rear and front fans, including the ventilation holes on top (probably can fix fans?)

what is the best way to make sure theres a good airflow in our casing? more ventilation holes? more fans?

What does your setup looks like? why worry about the fans and chassis even before buying??

Looking for micro-ATX (or if possible even ITX) casing to fit these stuff:
- standard CPU cooler around 160cm (hyper 212+)
- longest GPU you can get around 320cm (R9 280x)
Of course still need to be:
- aluminium
- looks simple & sl33k
- non-standard tower-box design

I look around and spotted Silverstone Fortress FT03S, that seems to suit all the conditions above. hmm.gif RM499, not cheap.
And no, I don't like that Bitfenix casing.

hmm.gif Any other than that FT03S that suit the hardwares mentioned?

Edit: somehow stumble on this "re-badged" version
the drilled holes surely looks better than the plastic mesh though.

Aluminium and fits long GPUs is certainly going to cost you quite a bit, other brand that caters for Aluminium is Lianli and Jonsbo which I can promise you it'll be at least be affordable... but not cheap

I can recommend an m-ATX shassis that could fit your GPU and cooler but it's not aluminium.. the Silverstone TJ08E
