Hilo vearn27. Hehe... I suggest you can use those wet tissues like those you get from restaurant to wipe both your casing and mirror. Pretty clean. I used it myself, even on my PDA phone. As for the interior, yes you can use paint brush, but make sure it's not to rough. Just my suggestion though.

Hehe... Now I reply here cause now I proudly own a TT casing mah. tongue.gif Those wet tissues you can buy in departmental store but kinda costly. But you don't wipe your casing that often right. So what I do is, I don't use the ones in restaurant, instead I bring home and wipe my tv, pc, ps2, etc... As for paintbrush, yes those you use for art can be used. Quite easy cause it's slim and has a long handle for you to reach tight places. Cosmetic brush... Err... Don't know woh. Never try before.

Mixed colours... thought it would be nice with such combination... but it seem my 'green' killing off my 'orange' now sweat.gif ... neway, still ok, rite? tongue.gif laugh.gif biggrin.gif shakehead.gif doh.gif

My aim also for the next PC Fair... but no idea yet thou... most probably settle down with 19" unless got good offer for 19"< tongue.gif ... At the moment I'm seeing the slim version from LG which is 8ms and high contrast brows.gif ... but the price tag too far from what I can afford sweat.gif ... both Samsung and Viewsonic got 4ms and 3ms... however, the contrast not as good as some... well then, just wait to see which offer is attractive wink.gif

Don't worry, your colour combination looks wonderful. Oh well... I'm not interested in Samsung LCDs. Viewsonic is OK for me. If not mistaken, you are talking about VX924 right? Hehe... A pretty good LCD if you don't mind Viewsonic's design which is a bit slack. LG is good but it's not worth the money you are paying for. The material they used are very expensive which you don't really need it unless you want your workstation to look classy. To me, Dell it is! sweat.gif

Dell's response time is high because they are using 8-bit technologies while other manufacturers sacrifice their quality to only 6-bit to get lower response time. I got a friend using the Dell 24 inch widescreen LCD to play games and has no problems. It's 20ms by the way. Dell bagus. thumbup.gif

Confirm! Read it in Anandtech when Dell first launch the 24 inch widescreen LCD and people was asking about the high response time. But anyway, I got a friend using it and it has proven its worth. But when I first saw the LCD, I nearly fainted. So damn HUGE!

Actually the Soprano can be considered a lower grade Tsunami . It looks pretty much the same except the material on the Tsunami is full aluminium while the Soprano is made of SECC and plastic.

phoenix was rite, both Soprano and Tsunami from Thermaltake having the same design with only a bit slight different but using different material. Soprano weighted at 9.4kg using SECC (front door = plastic) while Tsunami weighted at 5.6kg using Alu (front door = Alu) smile.gif

Weight might not be a problem for guy, but yet it's user's preference tongue.gif . Having Tsunami with lighter weight make it easier to carry or making changes with the hardwares (not everyone need to move their case everyday tongue.gif). In the other way, Tsunami has mirror coating which Soprano dun has brows.gif

Also there's another different when I viewed both models at Thermaltake's website (wah.. they updated it thumbup.gif). Tsunami will has slide-cage + thumbscrews for its 3.5" bays while Soprano dun hav but included tool-free installation wink.gif

What is 5.6KG and 9.4KG man? My black Kandalf is 18KG you know. Haha... flex.gif

my god!! that is bloody heavy man...Aluminium?? or SECC steel? if compared to my case, yours is like a tank...mine is just like a kancil....small and light... blush.gif

prices for thermaltake products have gone up again...sigh....
*
Haha... Kancil and tank. What a way to put it. tongue.gif My front bezel is made of aluminium while the chassis is made of 1.0mm SECC. What to do? Black doesn't come with full aluminium, only silver is full aluminium. And 18KG is just the casing alone. Haven't include the parts inside. I think everything should come up to 25KG. But anyway, I'm not going to carry my PC around. So it's just one time transporting it from the shop to my house. Try to imagine how I carry it last time. *faints* doh.gif

wow....you must be pretty strong.. tongue.gif where you located btw? even with my components inside my case, it is pretty heavy...weighs close to 16kg's (3 hdd and 2 optical drives) sweat.gif next rig i wanna get a full tower....not too sure if it will be thermaltake again...cause lately, been dreaming bout ah lian only...hehehe..V2000 looks pretty cool..

dude, are you on water cooling?

I'm staying at Kota Damansara. I'm not on water cooling. I'm on natural air cooling. Haha... Kandalf has a lot of fans in it and has good openings. Besides, I'm in an air-conditioned room. So my temperature is excellent. I still like Thermaltake casings although they do have some sucky designs. But currently of all casings, Kandalf is my favourite. Fallen in love with it since it was launched and finally got it 2 months back. wub.gif

wow....hehe...like they say...love at first sight.. laugh.gif hmm...i dun really like kandalf la...i think armor much better lor... rolleyes.gif but the side panel for both the casing not my type...too "unique" already...hehee...kota damansara? pretty near my place... tongue.gif thermaltake designs are ok la..but its quite hard if you wanna mod it to fit a radiator and stuff...somehow, i feel that their placing of peripherals just  mad.gif and i'm beginning to get a lil annoyed with their tool-less desings...last time sent my case for service, come back and 1 of my PCI locks (those green stuff) came out and now that slot is pretty useless...each time clean my mobo gotta use some really small screwdriver to open the slot (cause i screwed it vmad.gif) that is why plan to move to ah lian...since they still old school..hehe

Armor prompt to dust but the airflow is significantly increased. Anyway, Kandalf can become Armor too. The front bezel is removable. Haha... thumbup.gif I'm OK with the side panel, although I really prefer the Tsunami's side panel which have a X design. Ya... Their tool-less design a bit annoying and sometimes not tight. Anway, I remove the tool-less kit on my PCI bay and replace with screws which is tighter. By the way, where you stay since you say near to my place?

WAH! Looks like mine except the different front bezel. tongue.gif Eh... Change your optical drive to black colour. The beige colour kind of spoil the whole look of your casing ler. blink.gif
