| 1308262 | 2012-10-23 00:50:00 | Hi there. Im upgrading so I though Id replace the case as well. Im looking for a case(no PSU) around $100 or less, that takes full size ATX board, 3 HD's etc. Preferably without those crappy screwless systems Any recommendations ? or are they all as bad as each other at that price ?? I have a large Thermaltake Case at the Mo, It looks awesome, but is really a bad design (CPU fan needs to be removed to get the PSU out , screwless system that is really weak & wont hold anything etc etc etc) |

| 1308263 | 2012-10-23 01:15:00 | I use a coolermaster gladiator 600. It's got a couple of screwless systems and it's ok ish. You can have a look at how I put everything in it on my FB photo page for it. www.facebook.com here With my board the Sata ports are a bit tricky to get to, and the hard drive runners only have two rivet points so can't take 2.5" drives (though I took a drill and some screws to a pair of them, they fit after that lol) The back clips for the add in cards are ok enough, you can still use screws to hold them in. But overall it's a decent case considering it was 170 or something with the PSU. I'm sure you could try getting one for 100 without one. |

| 1308264 | 2012-10-23 01:20:00 | With cases it really is the more you pay the better case you get. I personally like corsair cases such as the 800D. Currently i have a 600t which i quite like. | Slankydudl (16687) | ||
| 1308265 | 2012-10-23 01:26:00 | Gotta agree with that TBH ^ Though there's some neat cases for cheap. Maybe look second hand or something? |

| 1308269 | 2012-10-23 03:34:00 | That Raidmax case I've seen is about $100.00 on trade me. Not much of a looker though. Here's a few other Raid max cases. www.trademe.co.nz |

| 1308270 | 2012-10-23 04:05:00 | antec one is a pretty good case especially for $70 Yeah, it looks OK ,but... I dont want the PSU at the bottom, the case will be sitting on carpet. I may need to go & looksee at some shops. PBtech only had the expensive cases on display. Cheers |
