Hello Casing's Sifu! rclxm9.gif
I'm was looking for a Good Value Gaming Case for about RM 300,

A case with the following specs...
- High Air Flow for Maximum Cooling
- Supports USB 3.0, got a Mobo supports it.
- Dust Filters... More the better? Don't want my PC to be a Dust Bunny Farm. I saw what happen to my Heat Sink Fan below....
- Supports Standard ATX?
- More Fans Provided in the Case?
- A hiding place for all my cables?
- With or without Side Panel Window... Not really care to show off my case.

A lot of my friends call me get these 3 types of well branded company Cases.
1. Corsair
2. Cooler Master
3. Antec

This is what I get for 5 months of no cleaning for the Aftermarket Cooler master heat sink fan...

For Corsair I saw 500R for the price of RM 298 and 400R for RM 199 by CEX. Hope still got stock.
Cooler Master 690 II Adv. doesn't supports USB 3.0 but HAF 912 advanced does.
While Corsair 400R and 500R only have the differences of Fans and a Fan Speed Controller on the 500R...
400R : (x2) front-mounted 120mm fans and (x1) rear 120mm fan
500R : (x2) front-mounted 120mm fans, and (x1) rear 120mm fan, (x1) 200mm side panel fan...

re-check the price from CEX it should be bundle price.. u MUST buy something along with the casing in order for u to buy them at that price

the CM 690II have a newer version with USB3.0 in the front panel but they took out the E-Sata port for that.. dunno if they arrived here yet or not...But I'd still recommend the 400R as the filters are much easier to clean wink.gif

for enforcer, yes, bcause its rebadge of 912...but drive bay mechanism in cm690ii is different that the other two..
only can remove the lower bay...& its length limit is 30.4cm..so a bit hassle if put long graphic card there, unless u mod it.
AMD always produce long card for their reference cooler. like 5970 hmm.gif

up2u... although 912/enforcer has new chassis, but they are a bit ugly.
compare to sleek cm690ii. rclxms.gif u can get the new cm690ii usb3.0 edition..

Okay... I kind of made my mind up. I'm Getting Corsair Carbide 500R/400RFrom CEX Bundle with 120GB SSD... It kind of win my heart.
Instead by getting 400R for RM 299... From Computer Hardware Shops in Lowyat sweat.gif

Thanks for you guys for suggesting me these cases BTW. What do you think. Should I start a new thread to poll?
I'm now figuring... What should I get 400R or 500R...? Pening kepala rclxub.gif

And Now I also need to figure out what type of Fans to fill in my case, that won't make me up in the middle of the night because the sound from the spinning fan running 24/7...
Any Fans which are 120/140mm bringing good intake exhaust to the case, and quiet as well...?

For that kind of budget, HAF 912 Advanced would be an ideal choice bro.

TS wat ever your choice is, just make sure have good removable washable air filters.
