yup as stated im looking for a new case around 70 bucks max that is cool looking and colored. anyone know a place, but it has to have side panels and some palces to put my 80mm fans in ^^ thanks again
 
Directron out of Houston is a great place for Cheiftech cases...You can get an idea of what Chieftech has to offer by checking their site out...Here is a link to Chieftech case @ Directron http://www.directron.com/chieftec.html Lots of colors...You can probably find them cheaper on the net, but this will give you a idea and model numbers you might be intrested in when you start looking for the best deal...:D...The Matrix series has provisions for 6 80's...comes with one in the door two in the rear and the blow hole fan (on the carbon black on for sure)...92m/m above the power supply and the full tower ones that I am referring to are huge...Great cooling...Nice cases...:D
 
i wanna be different i want to have like case with sliding out mount for the mobo

so i can have easy maintence and what nots
 
The Lian-Li cases have slideout trays. IMHO they are some of the highest quality cases money can buy. They have a very classic look, not over the top like some other aluminum cases. Easiest case I have ever worked on is the Lian-Li PC-65.

EDIT: oops forgot you were on a budget. Umm heh nevermind Lian-Li ;)
 
poopers, that stinky poo poo yo by way what type of coolign oyu using to get that type of clock speed
 
You might be out of time and luck...I have never seen a colored case with removable mobo try for 70 bones...Go over to SVC and check out their colored cases...You might like this one http://www.svc.com/orblchmixmiw.html Really for the money that you want to spend you cannot beat the Chieftech's...Yeah, Yeah, Yeah...Everybody and their dog (including me) has them...But for the money you cant beat em with a bat...And not even Hammer "Cant touch that"...:D
 
Well the Chenbro that I provided the link to won the Summer case shoot out at Tomshardware it comes in black and silver...I have not seen one but here is a pic of it http://www6.tomshardware.com/howto/20030804/index.html Wont be able to use your 80's on it but a 92 up front and a 120 in the rear should work quiet well...And it is cheap...Thinking about ordering one for a friends son for his Christmas present...She hates it but I think her 13 year old son will love it...It is definately different...Throw in a 350 watt Fortron or Sparkle power supply and your in like Flint for Cheap...A better choice IMHO that is a little bit over your budget is the Antec SLK series...I like the new SLK3700BQE...decent power supply can mount an additional 120m/m fan up front and can be had for about 75.00 bones without shipping http://www.antec-inc.com/pro_details_enclosure.php?ProdID=93703 I have also used this Silver Chenming X-Sonic case...Cool looking...has LED fans, decent power supply, made out of aluminum...Pretty nice case...Cooling is not the greatest but not bad with an additonal 80m/m fan up front...Great case if you like UV stuff http://www.svc.com/sichxmidtoca.html If you look around you should be able to find some really different looking cases...Just some options I thought I might share with you...:D
 
cool thanks guys for all your help now its time to the cred card where it go...........?
 
Well say I am blind in one eye and cant see out of the other...Here is a link to the Chenbro at SVC for the black and silver one http://www.svc.com/blsichmixmiw.html Seems you can run your 80m/m fans...The more I look at it the more I like it...Shucks guess I will order one and see what is up with them...The shape of the 5.24 inch bay's and the Samsung DVD, CDRW or the combo drive would work great...Check them out http://www.directron.com/sm352.html I can see one of these box's in the very near future...Oh by the way which case have you decided on??? :eek:
 
i saw one on newegg the oen from aspire turbo x-dream for 55 + 15 for shipping and it comes with psu, and its blue and has really big side window imma get that i guess. it looks very cool

Here it is
