U wan full acrylic without the metal? Or use back the same size one just don't want the hole? If want a same size better u just buy an acrylic panel and stick it on urself. Much more cheaper

i would choose 300R.
1. the shinobi window a little bit weird, position at the bottom and u can only look at ur PSU
2. 300R got removable HDD tray to support longer GPU
3. 300R got front intake fan for air flow, shinobi is consider as silent casing IMO

I see, okay thanks. More to come thumbup.gif

Not sure if the 300R HDD cage can be removed cause i cant find the thumbscrews or screws on it  rclxub.gif .
Interior design 300R still looks betetr than shinobi IMO.

nice case there
hi folks,
i've been searching around for a new case for my upcoming new rig.
since my new rig may be built to have 2x120 (240) radiator, so im looking for case that has to 2x120 fan outlets.
Xingmatek Asgard have the top fan holes, but a review mention it may not fit radiators due to allignment of the screw mounts.
Any recommendations?

i have been a user of CenturionV, n i hope i can find a case that is circa rm200 that:
- sturdy as C5
- looks simple. no need ufo looks
- 2x120 rad fitment
- black internals
- side windows (as long i can see lizards or leaks inside)
- psu top or bottom mounting doesnt matter
- circa rm200++

What i currently look at
- Xingmatec Asgard 381
- nzxt source210 window
- Bitfenix Shinobi Window
-

what u say?  smile.gif
*
Thanks, currently i'm also thinking can 240Rad mount on top of my casing a not. Since i'm planning to wc it icon_rolleyes.gif

Well if can tolerate with low end itx mobo maybe itx build still not that expensive. Some B75 itx from msi/asrock still around RM280 only.
I'm back to air-cooling without additional fans installed in my chasis now for more silent purpose  smile.gif
