New build in the next week or so, so might as well upgrade my case as im not completely happy with my current cases.
Main rig is in a P180, and my temps are just OK with it. Upgrading to IVB and OCing, so i value performance slightly over silence. I also had some issues with its design (stupid divider in middle, orientation of hard drives etc.
Old PC is in an Antec 900. I didnt mind this case, but swapping out HD's was a pain, and in general i did not like the way this case was set up. Ive also heard that its not the best case for good temps - even though what i got from it seemed ok.
So the case i want has to be:
easy to swap out parts/easy to work in. - dont mind if its kinda big (like the P180)
good performance - going for a high OC with IVB
somewhat silent - last priority, but if it can be kinda quiet, id obviously prefer that.
The P280 is 100 shipped right now from NCIX with a 20 MIR. http://slickdeals.net/f/4280816-Ant...MIR-shipped-NCIX-COM?token=AAEBBQAAAAAEPEFR8A IT seems to improve on features that bothered me in the past, and the way they designed it this time, it looks like it would be much better on temps than the last few versions
Anything out there better, or more suited for my needs?
