QUOTE(vincent09 @ Jun 1 2007, 09:55 PM) I see, but rm500 buy a case for me also ...dead XD. Keep money first for buy other thing. heheh..It's like owing a luxury apartment to house ur precious belongings... @E-J@1 It would be like one of the Zalman silent case that features totally passive cooling .. . I wonder how heavy it would be with the heatpipe case ...

Are those the heatpipes? Or those are the handle bars?

I think the Zalman still looks way better than this though..The good thing is they have those SFF version as well..

got a lot of headache recently regarding case...  Well... I wish to make this simpler... so instead of me asking "Is this a good casing" and so on... how about you guys recommend me a good casing instead?? My target is a good airflow casing. Coz I think lately my system is quite hot... and I'm not staying in an aircond room too. Can you guys recommend me any good casing with good airflow for below RM300??

@Phoenixwunin
That depend on how well the case airflow u are looking for ??
for that budget maybe better just get a case with dual 12cm and do some modding ..

Exactly! Whn u couldnt get somtin' within ur budget, the thing 2 do is modding. Evrythin v discuss in this section revolves around modding. Often u wont necessarily need spend hugely on casings. Simple ones can b improved by leaps & bounds
