900D still a prototype in last CES. It somehow not amaze me because I don't see much improvement and it just go giant in size to enable more 480 rads to accommodate.

Silverstone TJ series famous of aluminum built quality, but the problem of finger touching it directly will leave stains. Again the cable management system still not as good as other brand, so might have a hard time to route and hide those cables  sweat.gif .

True.After a few reviews i've read,my personal opinion,better off buy either Corsair 800D or Phantom 820.Much better with managable cable routes,rubber grommet for tidy looks and can fit most of motherboards in the market.If wanna go for a lot of rads,LD PC or XSPC cases will be much better.. smile.gif

Sifus,

Please suggest me a mid tower case with this criteria below :

1. Full Aluminium
2. Black exterior and interior
3. Black front panel cables
4. Good airflow with superb cable management ( since I'm with non-modular PSU  sad.gif )
5. USB 3.0
6. Elegant and classy  tongue.gif
7. Availability of the product itself

This is consider an upgrade from 2 years plus CM 690 II Advanced, so any positive features which CM 690 II don't have is a plus point.
Currently aiming for Lian-Li PC-7H, but yet I'm still scouting where can I get it since I'm not in rush.
And I'm not into watercooling.

Any input is much appreciated  biggrin.gif

You can try ask Idealtech for lian li case.. smile.gif

went to lowyat today.saw 350d demo unit at corsair booth at G level.very tempting indeed.The staff dunno when it'll be officially launched here at malaysia.They also said no idea about the pricing.But i guess it'll be almost to rm400.

Those huge side panel window,240mm top rad..it would really blows FD Arc Mini away..

Oh,they also had 800d usb3.0 version at their booth..iinm.me eyes only focused at 350d..ain't bother to look at anything else.. tongue.gif

BTW, after some searching... I found out that there's a smaller mATX casing than the Prodigy. It's Silverstone IINM. And I never thought mITX mobo are damn expensive. So, can someone suggest me mATX casing, I'm willing to sacrifice the watercooling as long I can own a small and portable rig.

How about Silverstone SG02 or SG05?

300R is pretty ok too, IMO

I can say majority of jonsbo casing are really superb for HTPC user, damn nice to put aside with home theater. but never see there is windows version before for all models, hope jonsbo expand for more windows version.

Yeah, I just want double check. I thought Switch 810 are non rubberized but some said it's rubberized at some part. And I just want to avoid that kind of finished.

Lotsa ppl will agree with you on that, that's why the phantom line is so sought after, I tend to see people going for sleek & smooth design nowadays.. not so ... "edgy" anymore... Silverstone, BitFenix, Corsair, NZXT, Jonsbo all going for the simple design nowadays
