Case with 120MM fans and no door in the front

[AwesomeJay]

I'm looking for a new mid tower case with 120mm fan in the front and preferably in the rear also. So far I've only found ones with a door over the drives (which i DONT want) or ones with 80mm fans. Anyone have any suggestions?

thanks!

Lian Li PC-7 B is a good one. Just be careful, as it does have a few sharp edges. But what is building a machine without a little blood, right?

The Coolermaster Centurion 530, 531, and 532 all come with a single 120MM intake fan, with room for a 120MM exhaust fan as well, and no door over the drives. The only exception is that the 530 has trapdoor's over the two top 5.25" drive bays. Seems like people are having mixed results on those and how well they function.

would be great if only it was in black..guess i should have said that at the beginning

They can be found in black. Try mwave.com, froogle, etc. All else fails, you can get it at coolcases.com - they sell them both in standard and modded configs. but their price is higher.

Some models of Evercase also have 120 capability on one or both also sold under the AMS name. Got a good review (4252 and 4292 as part of a system) for quietude OOTB by SPCR. This is the chassis used as the basis for the Asus Vento, if that matters at all.

Black LX 6A19 This case is nice specially with a dremeled(is there such a word?) exhaust .The Centurions mentioned above features a more free flowing exhaust grill.

Another vote for centurian -good build quality - good airflow - nice front connects- good air flow - awesome case for the money.

Thermaltake's new Swing case.... at newegg

 

[Allio]

I just picked up a Swing and I'm happy with it. I hate front doors too and it fitted the bill. It's Thermaltake, so you're not getting the utter best quality out there, but the price is really good, it's quiet, easy to assemble and looks great. Just need to get another 120mm fan for intake.

That Centurion also looks like a winner.

Lian Li has another case just like this one but with a 120mm fan in the back as well.

Get the Cooler Master Ammo. It is considered the best case and it doesn't have the door in front. You can get it at www.clubit.com for a very low price with free shipping.

Lian Li V1000 for mid tower. (V1100 is the door model)
Check Lian-Li's website. They have a brand new one, if you'd like one even smaller.

The Silverstone TJ06B is a rather tall case, but it meets most of your requirements, w/ the exception of its height...It's a tall case, but it's a great case...

Here's the CM Centurion 531. Looks like it can handle two 120mm fans.

I have this case, and it super easy to swap out components (see pics for details on tooless drives/sides). 120mm in front of drive cage, 120mm at rear. Also has a nice 80mm side duct that goes right over the CPU cooler as well to exhaust/supply air.
It's comes with a 400 or 450W PSU.

120mm fan front and rear, no door, has those drive bezel things to hide un-sightly beige drives!

Seems like the cheap COOLER MASTER Centurion 532 RC-532-SKN1 has many of the features the more expensive coolermasters have, what is it missing?

I have this chassis (different front panel and no side vent) and it's pretty nice after cutting out the back exhaust. I'm using it in my "main" rig. Looks like prices have gone up a bit - used to be able to get these for under $50 (more like around $40).

I've got 2 LX-6A19's, one that I modded, and one done by MNPCtech.

Great case, roomy, strong, and can be quite quiet once you cut out the stamped grills (as said by others!) and using some good fans.

I have this case and just LOOOVE it ... the front has an air filter behind the silver popout piece on the bottom and it has kept a full cat worth of cat hair out of my front fan. 120mm fan in the back does a great job as well. I just wish it had the Antec/Chieftec mounting mechanism as I have a black side window from an Antec which does not mount in this case.
