What do you guys think of Scout II? Reasonable price, nice design, black interior, windowed and good cable management. I'm not bothered by lack of fans, easily solved by getting more.

What really bugs me is they only provide 1 dust filter. Anyone know where to get more of these?

Apparently there's only one dust filter at the PSU's inlet. I probably have to check it out in a shop first before making a decision. Plan to go shopping soon.

I too looked around for casing with dust filters but there arent really complete solutions out there. It's better to get a casing that you really liked and install dust filters yourself. Cheaper too. Myself I settled with Scout 2. Installed filters on side, bottom and top. Front have acceptable dust filters

No need extra modifications. The ones I got is

I heard from other forumers you can get these
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16811999226 from view net, LYP. Haven't shopped in LYP in years, so I can't confirm. Magnetic, so just paste it on your casing. Sucks if you're using plastic or acrylic

Depends which model. I was tempted on 600T but expensive. After thinking through couple of times the extra couple hundreds could have been spent on 4x4 RAMs or save for a better SSD. After all I'll probably admire the casing the first month but I'll be dealing with performance daily.

If you want simple, check out BitFenix Shinobi / NZXT Source 210 ( Same factory according to Cyntrix ), Xigmatek Midgard II , Xigmatek Pantheon, Corsair 600T. All these I've considered dust-proof able. There's other simplistic design from Silverstone or LianLi but those are really expensive due to materials. There's also the extreme method of sealing it off completely and watercool properly.

Definitely no dust but a whole new sets of issues =)

Nay to Aerocool. Cheap plastic imo. Lots of unnecessary frills that attract dust and dirt in long run.

I'd say bitfenix even though I'm using a CM

CM Stryker
NZXT SWITCH 810
NZXT PHANTOM ( not 820 )
BitFenix Shinobi XL

I'm interested to find Raven RV03 with RM500 budget, link please

Nice. I always thought ss stuff is pretty expensive. Now I know what to use for new rig

Bros, I'm building a PC for a female user.
Any small and nice casings for matx to recommend? Preferably with USB3.0 but not a requirement

Oooh nice. SS and Lian Li is probably out of budget. Will keep an eye for Fractal

NZXT Phantom 410?

If elite is good enough then go for it. It's cheaper. Unless you're looking for the sound dampening features then I'd still suggest elite and pad it with foam.

Shinobi XL looks like a good choice. Thinking practically.. imagine needing to wipe all those meshes, curves, crevices, holes and other eye candy. >.< nightmare

What's zl? size? You mean xatx compatible?

Well technically there's no such thing as XL size. People usually refer PC casing sizes to its form factor.

Exactly what kind of mod are you looking at?

Really liked Corsair design. Might get 500R =D

I bought a CM Scout 2 and dust proofed it with those fan filters and vacuum filters. Just a simple DIY, nothing hard.

If you're just looking for a minimalism design with side window and good cable management AND no complex WC system, Shinobi is a good choice. Just take note of of your GPU's length
