Is NZXT S340 a good choice for its price tag? also where to buy it in KL(Lowyat/Digital Mall)

My motherboard is Asrock H97 Pro4, GTX970, 1 TB HDD, going to add an SSD in future.

contact Vector directly, look in facebook

All are okay, I don't really like the Aerocool X1 though Zalman chassis... not much variety in the shops so probably a good idea to ask online vendors like Idealtech or Apes, no worries about your components, all can fit

S340 is good... if you have no need for an external 5.25" bay at the front, very mod friendly too, and yes all your components will fit inside of it, no worries

Hey everyone,

Would love some suggestions for this one. I'm looking for the smallest casing that supports:

1) mATX
2) Normal size expansion slot (not low profile)
3) Maximum width of 180mm
4) Has one fan intake slot and one exhaust slot (top or rear, NOT side)
5) USB 3.0

The smallest one I've found is the SilverStone PS08 (23.85 litres). Coming in second is the Cooler Master Elite 361 (25.61 litres). Are there any others I might be missing?

If it weren't for the width requirement, I would've just went for smaller SFF casings. If it weren't for the expansion slot requirement, would've went for one of those slim HTPC ones from SilverStone.

anyone use corsair carbide 540? can share ur exprnce?

Hey guys, want to ask, what is the smallest micro atx case available, able to fit standard psu and itx gc..no preferred brand, budget below rm200..

Have you taken a look at Bitfenix or Aerocool Matx Chassis?? but yes they are quite big for an SFF chassis but still smaller compared to normal mid towers... going more premium will be the BitFenix Pandora but it is a slim profile chassis

at that budget, I suggest taking a look at Cooler Master elite series, there are a few mATX chassis there and some are even smaller

Didn't really look into those, just skimmed through. Doesn't seem like they have anything that fits my requirements though the Pandora is slim width wise, but still quite big.

really really tempting to get the caselabs S8s case if only the price is slightly cheaper... total cost after selecting everything + shipping around USD610 around RM2.4k... damn
but dam sexy casing

Budget: < RM 600.
Preferred Brand(s): None, any also can.
Must-Have-Features: mATX only (need to save space and my mobo is mATX).
Location: Selangor

Well caselabs are expensive, and the S8s is a huge one at that, other alternatives maybe Corsair Air 540 or CM HAFXB... else another will be the Bitfenix Atlas (has yet to be launched) but even then they will not be s spacious in comparison... but they are kinda big already lol

Try taking a look at CM's Elite series or Silverstone Tj08

i dont mind big huge... just need the mobo to lay flat like CM Haf XB (which im using now)
the Corsair Air 540 and Bitfenix Atlas dont have what i need but pretty.
right now i have in my mind is Caselabs S8s and Vector Test Bench

well then the CM HAF xb is the only choice if you want it cheaper... the Vector bench is not exactly flat, the mobo tray is at an angle

im looking for this, but it doesnt seems to be selling in MY

Fractal Design Define R5 vs Phanteks Evolv M

Which is better?

Fractal Design's Define S can be more silent if you don't mount any fans on top. And I think you mean Phanteks Enthoo Pro M? If so then they are similar in many ways, though the Pro M has a single 5.25" drive bay if you do need it, and maximum of 7 or 8 slots of 3.5" drives if required(need purchase additional bracket as at stock the case comes with 2 slots only) whereas the Define S has only 3 slots for 3.5" drives without option for additional slots. So it all depends on what you're using it for but if it's just gaming you won't need more than 2 3.5" bays.

NZXT pink chassis? are these special edition chassis?? maybe you can ask the local modders to help??

Hi Sifus,

Wanted to ask, what is the best Mid-Tower casing that has good airflow and full dustproof that has dust filters covering top, front and bottom? So far after some researching, the one that I found to my liking is Obsidian 450D, but the price now with GST + weak RM is making me

I wanna ask is there other alternatives? Or if not, where can I get 450D cheapest?

no choice on the RM dropping but there are other options for chassis, for starters maybe CM 690III or a Bitfenix Ronin or even the Shinobi there is also ones from thermaltake with full dust filters

yea... the weak RM is killing us...

hmm... but the cases that you suggest, they're so biiiig.....
I scared my table cant support heavy casing + hardware that is why i choose 450D, that means there is no other options?
The thermalktake one, may i know what model is that?

I currently have a pc in a mid tower but hoping to transfer to a smaller case, so i would like to know if anyone can recommend me one my specs are attached below.
Thanks
