http://www.citycomputermi.com/shopbrowse.aspx?item=1583&cat=26 black. the black one i seen in real life has a more smoked drive bays that look blacker int he pic i have the silver one.


alot of holes all over except the front. has a 80mm fan in the front can fit 3 fans on the side 1 in the back and 1 up top all 80mm. tool less car slots nice and thick and sturds. the top handles are greay for lan parts.


top and bolth sides have small holes to let the air out and have plastic mesh filters over all the open holes. i dont get hardly any dust in my case compared to my old case and avter a few months the inside still looks new as far as dust goes.


downsides. no firewire but you can add it. firewire sucks anyways. no 120mm fan openening so you gotta use 80's. can remove the mobo tray. wire management is kinda hard with this case compared to my old case but overall i love my case. allways turns heads at lan parts. you get 2 led fans with the case but there weak as heck. i can fart harder then them but you cant hear them.

i bought alot of stuff from this place at a computer show and online they have good service just incase you wanna order one of the cases but are unshure about them i can personaly say i never had a problem with them and there good guys there.

I just got a cooler master stacker 830. Monster of a case but you can fit a LOT of 12cm fans in it. Sadly I am an american so i have no idea where to point you to buy one. They seem to be running for about 150 pounds tho so if you can scrounge up another 10 quid you should be good. I would suggest checking all the major computer parts sites that ship through europe.

Do some research on that site. It has stacker 830 for very cheap and apparently includes VAT. It came up the cheapest on froogle but often those sites are a little shifty. This looks to be a legit site tho. I would just suggest doing a little research on them to make sure they are a good reseller and buy something from them if all of their prices are that low. Keep in mind that these stacker cases are HUUUUUGGE. So if you want something for LAN parties or something then go for something a little smaller. Try a cooler master wavemaster maybe?

i would definitely recommend the stacker 830 .. but the black version .. it kind of hides the cheap plastic pieces .. im seriously considering buying one .. cuz i need those fans to cool down my video cards and as much as i love lian li .. their cases just dont cool well enough
