Silver Praetorian vs. Black/Blue Cavalier 3. Now With Poll.

[imported_Salvatore]

Which do you think would be better, or which do you prefer? The Silver Praetorian or the Black/Blue Cavalier 3.

The Praetorian has 4 fans and nice clean look.

The Cavalier just looks damn good but only has 2 fans.

I was leaning toward the Praetorian until I found out the price difference is $1. Now I can't decide.

I vote for the Cavalier!

I would avoid the Praetorian because it only has an 80mm exhaust. I've been looking at new cases as well, and others I've been consdering (in addition to the cavalier3), are coolermaster's centurion 5, and thermaltake's tsunami dream. both can be found at newegg.

but i haven't been able to decide yet either. =P

Of all those you just mentioned, I would get the Tsunami. I love that case better than anything.

I'll be the contrarian and state that I'm very pleased with my silver praetorian. It is a very nice case to work with--big knurled thumbscrews on everything, slide out MB tray, etc. A nice case.

ASW

i like the praetorian. It just looks that much cooler. Im not really that fond of cases with front doors. The removable mobo tray is a really cool feature

i have a black wavemaster and looks awesome i'd go with black if your going to add lights in stuff. i think coolermaster just came out with a blue wavemaster and it looks awesome!

Yeah, I don't think the pictures do it justice on NewEgg's or CM's sites. On NewEgg, it looks like it has gray bezels, and on CM.com, it looks white. I'm going more for the silver look. Since you own it, is it more silver or more white, like on CM's site.

I would buy praetorian. I have the bk version of it. Personally I think its the best case for under$100. The only downside is the 80mm fan instead of 92 or 120mm. Everything else is perfect. The removable MB tray is prob the best part of this case. U wont regret getting it 🙂

the praetorian is too loud and doesn't cool very well. (a friend of mine has one)

Finally went with the Silver/Blue Cavalier. I thought I fell in love with the Black/Blue scheme, but it was only because it had that "new" thing going for it. After I looked at it more and more, I liked it less and less.
