Where was the Cooler Master HAF932 and HAF920... seriously? You did a case comparison, and didnt put in the two best cases on the market right now? They are the best cases, value compared to cost you can get.

this review is about new cases being recently released in the market. HAF932 is kinda an old product, which is why it was not mentioned in the conclusion. I hope future case review will take products still available in the market into conclusion consideration, rather than just too narrowly focused on what is being currently reviewed.

Also, with regards to all sceptism of Panzerbox, I just finish watching video reviews on youtube, and seriously I must say the functionalities of the panzerbox is seriously unique.

I can sum up the Lian Li case up with some very few words.....Damn sexy case

 

[JohnnyLucky]

I thought about getting a Panzerbox for a build but case reviews at other web sites kind of steered me away.

can someone explain to me the appeal of this Lian Li case? It's another boring brushed case, with simple design. Looks like a generic $50 case without that silly Lian Li tag blocking a fan.

I like the panzer box

I always keep my PC cases on the floor, so I spend 100% of the time listening to it and 1% of the time actually looking at it. For that reason, I'd see the Antec P193 as by far the better case... seeing as it is superior both acoustically and thermally.

the Antec Nine Hundred Two Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case is the most favorite case in newegg. i think you should have added that one to the tests for comparisson. If im going to build a system this year i think ill go for that one. seems to have great ventilation and it also looks very dam cool.

Would be nice to see this again, perhaps use a poll to choose the cases? And also for the cheaper price brackets as not everyone can work with a $2500 budget for a pure Xtreme Game rig, or would prefer to put the xtra cash in something performance related.

I somehow still prefer the Cooler master HAF922

That Lian Li PC-X1000 Case is very close to what im looking for to replace my Antec 900...but not quite cool enough. It needs a top fan and side fan. Cable Housing seems very very cool! Better airflow with them stuffed behind the mobo. Dunno let me know if anyone knows of similar cases like the Lian Li!

This is a great case for the average gamer, if running on air cooling only, this one keeps the components nice and cool. About the only thing that would make this case better at it's current price tag would be if...
1. It shipped with a second set of fans that did not have the LED lighting (some like me just like a case with clean lines and not all the flashy lights, although you can turn off the LED's on this case they spring back to life upon a reboot), AND...

2. Provide a quality "feeling" and looking fan speed control knob. Perhaps something along the lines of a knob that doesn't sit higher than the faceplate, is brushed aluminum, and has a finger indent to allow the user to turn it would have really finished off this case. Other than the fan speed knob which in my opinion, looks cheap, this is a rock solid case that says quality throughout. Oh, also Thermaltake needs to dump the plastic feet and use some rubber or silicone feet instead, I hate plastic feet on my cases.
