QUOTE(iaknesnah @ Oct 21 2011, 04:03 PM) the way the make the handle kinda wierd... might slip if not held properly  400R you mean? i dont find it easy to slip, unless you suddenly lost control of your hand when you carry the case with only 1 hand, the casing will tilt to the back and thus it is quite hard to slip off your hand unless the handle broke

QUOTE(Economics Crisis @ Oct 21 2011, 02:37 PM) if i were u i'll go for corsair 400r coz i got bad experience in the past with cooler master casing the front led on off switch not working with no reason damm..!! that's not a really bad experience.. check if the fan is connected to the toggle button, there should be a 2-pin connector to the button. If you have already done the above, then you might have a bad fan, you should get it replaced. This post has been edited by Unleashed: Oct 21 2011, 11:00 PM

Corsair 400R all the way..I've notice the 400R is slightly bigger than the HAF..letting more space for squezzing in large cards.

Yeah bro. Window panel is one of my criteria for casing but too bad 400r doesnt hav it  .

Which one has better airflow, cable management, etc.. I'm currently inclined to buy the HAF 912 Advanced because it comes with 2 200mm fans and 1 12cm fan, it also has 2 extra USB slots. Any advice is welcome  Google Haf 912 Advanced before you post. Cheers This post has been edited by Jayi: Oct 31 2011, 10:13 PM

I think corsair 500r is better in interior feature but no nice as HAF when come to exterior. I own a HAF 912 advance and the problem I think is too small which will lead some issue with >ATX board. No internal rad support. I really like H100. And also the big top fan need to be remove if H80 is installed.

Any advice is welcome  Well. 400R Case is much better as you can get an awesome cooling with 5 x 120mm fans. Smaller the faster the RPM = Quick Air Access. Plus. 400R Case give in nice Accessories like USB 3.0 to USB 2.0 not all case has it , I'm not sure about HAF 912 for more value use HAF X
