Anyone getting ANTEC case...LOOK HERE FIRST PLEASE !!!!

[dugans]

Mine is not, I don't know if others are.
What I've seen as far as aluminum cases is that they LOOK cool, and are well built and designed, but I haven't seen anything showing any real improvement in cooling.

And they are BIG $$$. Which lets ME right out, cheap sob that I am.

 

[Genoide]

does anyone know of a site where i can get this specific case moded already like with some fans on the sides window kit up top etc..? or i u know of a site that mods cases with fans on sides and window kits and has wide variety let me know... i know www.pcmods.com and www.wahoocomputers.com mods them but expensive and not wide varitey of mods on pcmods.com

why is it better then any aluminium case?

It is cheaper, bulletproof, very high quality, and very easy to work with. I think a 200 dollar Al case might be sweet but it ain't better adn i won't magically cool your case. how often you take out the mobo anyhow? I switch mobos now and then but the tray removal just isn't that important to me.

Should i get this case... its very expensive i'd have to convience my parents... but since its aluminium... i don't know what to do... i dont want much noise and i want the case to last me a long time and i will be able to get nice ambient temps without much noise. or should i get the antec/chieftic models and it there won't be much difference? and if u know a site where i can find this case moded already pls give me a link

If it was me, I'd go for the Chengming, Antec version if you want the door.

The extra money could by other stuff!

But if you want cool looks, and so forth that case does look nice.

If I was going to spend that kind of money I think I'd go Koolance!

 

[Genoide]

yeah but where can i find a door like that for the antec/chieftec case?

 

[dugans]

If you want the door, Antec is the one that has it, I think.

I don't think you can get the doors on the Lian-Li cases.

Not sure though; I've looked at them online, but I'll never get one because of the cheapness thing!

 

[Genoide]

what i ment what i wanted a door with fans/ or window + fans i want 2 fans on the sides and 1 fan on top thats how i want to mod my case, and that is the only reason why am looking for a site that has options to fully customise a case.

 

[dugans]

Gotcha. That deal looks ok: I'm just more stuck on mods for function than looks.

 

[Genoide]

Well... i want that for an antec case also since am not going to get that aluminiun case ... to expensive so am looking for a site, been searching for one like 2 days already... if u know of any let me know

 

[dugans]

Don't know of any sites, but there are some guys here who have done mods for people in the past.

I bet you could do it yourself, and think of the satisfaction you'll have in doing it too!

where can i get the sx630 or sx635 online w/ a good price and a low shipping fee???

it can be by cheiftec/chenming or whoever

if anyone from Los Angeles is reading this and if you've been to the latest computer show tell me if u've seen the antec cases there and if possible a price.

 

[Kingslayer]

There is NO difference between the two cases. Both are manufactured in Taiwan by a company called Chengming. Antec and Chieftec slap their labels onto them and sell them in America.

The Antec is more $ because it's a recognized brand name, and it comes with a quality PSU and two fans. I'm not sure whether the Chieftec includes fans or not.

You are also paying for Antec's warranty.

-Ace-

So basically Antec is slathering Chieftains name by warning that there are fakes out there and at the same time trying to force the bandwagoners to spend more money on thier case, which is actually made by the same company as the Chieftain...

Reason #435 not to buy Antec.

i think youve got it right kingslayer. i wonder what the real manufacturer thinks about there products being "fake" lol
