I would like to buy new casing for myself.
And my budget is around RM300.
So, I was looking at THIS

Hence, I wonder, is all of those casing same?
Will it fit everyting?
My PSU, Mobo and etc...


Or is there any other recomendation?

Make sure ur motherboard factor is supported by ur casing..and also ur length of ur GPU..
Other should be not a big problem

Casing has many sizes depends on wat category u want...

got HTPC (Home Theater PC),Mini Tower PC,Middle Tower,also Full Tower....
exclude those extraordinary casing like server rack etc.....

with ur budjet ~RM300 if u gonna have a new casing...Mid Tower,Mini Tower will suit ur budjet and the size of casing will depends on ur hardware....

try google up Cooler Master as example..there u'll see these casing were classified according their category.....

and try to looks casing that have really nice cable management. which it will help you to hide all ur cables and make the internal looks smart and tidy.

oh yes. my comment on your interest LEXA S is the air flow is good, it has a well built cable management hole, nice damn black metal internal (which it will give good dim reflect on ur internal lamp), bottom psu side transparent side panel but I really have to see 'pintu peti-ais' casing on the front casing haha last time my roomate got one and suddenly kicked his 'pintu peti-ais' dan terus patah haha. i think for long term effect on the mechanical side of hinge is no good.

buy CM690 la. It really give me smile for several years.

1. GPu length:AfterMarket VGA cooler sumtimes longer than stock cooler (My CM Storm Scout under surgery to fit in monster GTX accelero cooler.. ~.~)

2. Cable Management and Air flow round casing(if consider using air cooling)

3. Mobo Plate on casing MUST got lubang (Easy to replace CPu heatsink if using air cooling)

coolermaster 690 Advance II is cool(good air flow without adding any extra chassis fan other than the ones comes with it.) and can fit everything. and all the big big cpu cooler (I recommended the Hyper 212 plus, cheap and good) from cooler master.

as long as the casing is ATX standard
u can fif your ATX Power supply and ATX motherboard.

Erm, no specifications of your hardware? Then cannot simply recommend CM690 II cause cannot fit in HD5970 (unless remove HD cage then put at 2nd PCI-E slot if available).
But for the most part, yes, almost anything can be fitted into CM690 II (any model, version)
Or if you can wait, 912 Plus is almost here(I think), and this one can take off the HD cage and can fit even the longest workstation graphic card up to 15" long (with the easily removeable HD cage removed).
Darn, I'm getting that 912 Plus... can't wait >.<"
