Haf 922 vs Lian Li PC-7F

[Jader88]

Looking for suggestions on which case would be better. I like these two cases, I used to have a Lian li PC-60, the old one with 80 mm fans. It was an ok case but it was flimsy and noisy. The left side eventually warped the aluminum is so thin, didn't like that. I never owned one of the haf cases but I really like the way the haf 922 looks, and I like that it has big 200 mm fans so maybe it will be quieter and have better cooliing than the lian li i don't know. The Lian Li 7fn has some improvements over the old PC-60 but might still be low quality. This computer will be used in a garage. Which one do you think would be best.

I have experience with the HAF 922. I'm not sure why it is priced at 110 right now, when it is sub 100 it is hard to beat, but at 110, you might as well spring for the 932 for $10 more.

Anyways, the 922 is a really good case. The fans are super quiet and move a lot of air. Also the red LED fan has an on/off switch for the LEDs which is really nice. It is also a very roomy case for a "mid tower". I would not pay 110 for it though.

I am using the PC-7FN right now. It is very well built and easy to work with. It's also a bit more minimalistic in design if that's your thing.

I haven't used the HAF, but from looking at the pictures, the Lian Li looks to be made from higher quality materials. Seems like you could stick a bunch of fans in the HAF and get better cooling though.

I HAF the 932 and love it (aren't I clever?)
