Added on April 16, 2007, 4:41 pmThen A16 will works for the budget range, it has lots of ventilations holes to keep the entire rig cool .... and reallocatable HDD cage ... or push up budget up to RM800 to grab V1000 series. It has side patent fan that can be reversed to breath cool air to the 8800GTX, it help to keep the card cool down by 5c as compared to exhaust hot air out through the side patent fan ...

PCA10 is priced at RM798 from ATE of LYP ...
i owned the case before and not really satisfied with the design.. in the end sell it off and grab V1000A .. . love it .. so much as much more easier to control the airflow ... |

anyone have any comments comparing the cm elite 330/331 with the cm centurion 5. i went to see them last week and feel that the centurion 5 is like more harder as in better quality.
the power button also looks and feels better, unlike the 331 that is kinda loose and cheap. the 330 is not that bad tho. dang, now i gotta raise my budget for a cent 5 again. T_T |

The price tag already tells the different .... besides that the number of Centurion user also clarify the quality, solidness and performance of the case ...

Nth as cheap as the promotion G7 ... others are PC7 at RM288 or S07 around RM300 as well...
other cases would cost more .. like V600 and A05 around RM360+.. then follow by RM5++ for the other cases.. |

Hmmm .. so far i dont experience too much of dust accumulated inside the case but cleaning it for once a month is something must be practiced..

QUOTE(awh85 @ Apr 16 2007, 07:21 PM) anyone have any comments comparing the cm elite 330/331 with the cm centurion 5. i went to see them last week and feel that the centurion 5 is like more harder as in better quality. I have use the C5 before changing to the LL and i must say that the C5 is very well made. Love it very much but there is a few problems that i encounter :the power button also looks and feels better, unlike the 331 that is kinda loose and cheap. the 330 is not that bad tho. dang, now i gotta raise my budget for a cent 5 again. T_T The filters of the C5 really collects alot of dust. You will need to clean it up very often as you will see a tiny layer of dust after a few days. Taking off the front panel might be troublesome. This is because you will need to take it out whenever you wanted to clean the front intake fan and take out the Rom. Besides, the pins of the leg are kinda flimsy and you must becareful taking them off. I damages one leg before previously and there is no way you could replace them. Cable management is extremely tough. No many places for you to hide the cables.. Other than those, i like the C5 very much.For a low price and a good design, especially being tooless as well, it is a very good casing. The built quality is very very good and tough. Anyway, besides white, silver side, and blue side, i also say a fully black (black side) as well at ALL IT the other day when i went to LYP..

I'm very new to this modding. I plan to buy new dekstop pc soon.
As a beginner to modding, which casing suit me? Just want a simple case with good air flow(front and back fan), transparent side panel, and easy to mod with to become a bling bling case. My bro using power logic dont know what model... got transparent side panel but very noisy. Oh ya, normally buy casing come together with psu? I need recommendation and guides. Thanks in advance. |
