Looking for a nice, spacious BTX casing. Might be running 2 SLi and PhysX. Able to fit in 6 hard disk spaciously + 2 optical drive. Most importantly, must have good airflow.

Budget max RM1k without PSU. Hope it's not too little.

Highly suggest that u get a TJ09, it can fit 6 drives, dedicated mid section air duct just for the display cards but it's not BTX tongue.gif

BTX can be done 1. No problemo.  brows.gif  brows.gif  brows.gif

It's going to be tougher than TJ07 since not all of the TJ09 internals are removable

Pretty roomy casing but i don't like the ideaof putting HDD below the PSU tongue.gif , it's ok i u have only 1 or 2 hdd but if u have more than that the HDD will overheat(from what i read from review around the web, don'tflame me lol tongue.gif ). It's quite tall as well so make sure u have the space for it, not to mention it looks damn good thumbup.gif , the biggest mobo it can fit is ATX style mobo

hmm.. i see i see... can you tell me what are the options for the cooling solution? I'm really newbie in this. Or is there another case that you would like to recommend? Main concern is that the case has to be black and well, looks good. Heheh.. biggrin.gif

Why not u try to check out some Lian Li casings? Seriously nicer silverstone casing is very expensive(~RM1k) like those TJ09 or TJ07, which is out of your budget by quite a lot tongue.gif .

TJ03 is certainly over RM 1k, which is over your budget by 5 times sad.gif
