QUOTE(mADmAN @ Jan 16 2006, 01:31 AM) seriously....check out the aerocool i suggested. it has everything u want... its even within ur budget. hey i checked it out...u r right, it has all the features that i want...but the only problem is that the side panel is on the left side of the casing and all installation must be done through the left side of the casing....also, from wat i see, the m/b has to be installed upside down cuz the expansion slots are located way on top of the casing and for the psu, it is located all the way below the casing...why is everything upside down in this casing????is there another version of this casing where the side panel is on the right side??? |

QUOTE(mADmAN @ Jan 16 2006, 10:16 AM) the reason its all upside down is because its a BTX case.... aka ATX upside down. kinda cool actually. thanx 4 that info..i'll be sure to check it out...but just wondering whether it is sold in low yat($?)...n wat type of psu can be used 4 it....not 2 expensive i hope...but if u still want the normal one...i saw one in sunway pyramid it centre. only diff is that the front sort of have an acrylic thingy and theres no side window. internals, not too sure. |

QUOTE(mADmAN @ Jan 16 2006, 04:37 PM) @rocketboy in case ur interested, theres also another version of the baydream but with a door.... Aerocool Coolview havent seen (or noticed) it being sold anywhere yet. should check out the cases that aerocool makes. some of them are quite cool man. my fav is still the baydream though  i went 2 lowyat and found both this casings (coolview & baydream) being sold in the All IT hypermarket...baydream=RM300, coolview=RM489... anyway, thanx to madman 4 givin me ur suggestion on buyin the aerocool casings...i now plan to cut down my casing budget to <RM350 cuz i plan to spend more on performance upgrade on the pc i will be building soon...this means that RM350=casing + psu..got any recomandation 4 that range??...better if it is easily available in low yat.... thanx again.... |

QUOTE(mADmAN @ Jan 17 2006, 02:39 PM) one thing though.... wht kinda setup u thinking of? coz if its a power rig than the enlight PSU might not be able to handle the rig. honestly, i think its better to set aside RM300 to get a good PSU. not advisable to be skimping on the PSU. then mebbe u can get a capalang casing around RM100 and mod it urself to give it better airflow. This are the specs of the rig that i'm gonna buildPentium D 2.8Ghz Corsair DDR 667-2Gb Maxtor Sata 200Gb x 2 Sapphire X800GTO 256Mb DDR3 Do u think that i may require a good psu fo this setup??? |

QUOTE(mADmAN @ Jan 18 2006, 01:59 PM) uhuh...... i would recommend something thats at least 450w true power MINIMUM . look for them enermax's theyre a popular choice in this forum. but then to be safe get a 500w true power. thatll set u back more than 300 for the PSu alone. how about brands like cooler master & icute...will their psu's do the work??? r they safe???time to recalculate ur budget dude |
