I built my system from the box up last year. For the box I used an ATX full tower case - you know, that cheap $40 one that's just about the only cheap viable option to an Antec full tower case.
I modded it using a couple heater register vents - worked great for ventilation but looks like crap. I have aspirations of replacing it.
I'm looking for input/suggestions for a replacement case. While cool colors, aluminum, window kits and such would be great, form follows function.
Unfortunately, its not a simple fix. I'd like to keep total price under $100 and I have to be able to accomodate my H2O accessories - specifically my Danger Den Supercube radiator which now lives in the top of my case with enough room to house a 120mm exhaust fan in the back.
I'm not against a radiator upgrade if cooling is not inhibited by the switch.
What do you think?
Here's what has to fit:
ATX board
2 HDDs
2 CDROM drives
1 PSU
1 Floppy drive
Supercube radiator and 120mm fan (Pump and res are external)
