1040B for me But I like the D30 generic Jet Black case better.

Did I not see the Hydrualic case up there like the older Alienware cases I had one of those for a bit looks good but lacks the cooling...

BTW: there is a hot Deal on the 1040 in hot deals with a window and a 420watt PSU... for Like a silly amount cheap go check it!


This is a good topic bro well planned out <golf clap> :p

Thanks EXman, for the kind comments :)

Should I add the 'Hydraulic Case' as its own listing or leave it to 'Generic/No Name' because I don't believe a known manufacturer builds those cases (although I could easily be wrong)

"Matrix" everything these days, huh? LOL. The bezel does have more 'action' to it, although it looks like somebody picked up a machete and went wild ;) Also, looking at the picture, it seems as if a free blow hole has been pre-cut YEAH!

Peace

I really like the Chenming cases, but I like my Lian Li PC60 better. Too bad we can't vote for two:(

LOL, this is true. I assumed that when you select a case, you'll be picking up the case and doing whatever you like to it. Perhaps in the future, once as many people as possible have taken part in this poll, I'll start another thread using all the vote-getters (as you probably noticed there are a few options nobody voted for) and asking if you modded the case (and in what way, etc.)

Peace

The XOxide case is cool indeed. Thanks for the link.

Thanks again folks for responding to this poll. Interesting to see the Antec/Chieftec/Chenming kicking b00ty by such a large margin. I knew it would be popular, but WOW!

I like mine too. Wish it cooled better, but it does ok enough for me.

BUMP!

Let's take this poll to 200 voters to get a really good idea (perhaps the Lian-Li will make a late surge and defeat the Antec/Chenming/Enermax 10-bay case)

BUMP!

It seems like the SX10x0/FS710 has easily taken the victory. All hail the king of cases :)

I checked "Other" and found out I have same as Sky Hawk ALP4350U-SL because it comes with Neon light and cheap case I like it.

I like my Juno P6 Case. It looks great, has great cooling and is quite cheep for a full tower case (~£70 with 300watt PSU)

I like Palo Alto ATCX Mid-Tower case. The original case for Dell and MicronPC. Light, quiet, enough cooling for non-OC. 16lbs without PS, 20lbs with PS. I have antec sx1030, but it weighs about 40lbs. Plus all the peripherals add in, it could be easily close to 60lbs. I guess I'm a skinny guy ;)
