Which Cases do you like better

The chenbro looks better... Who really NEEDS bloody wheels under a computer case?? On server cases, I can see it where you have many drives (both hard and optical) and who knows what else running around in it. On "normal" desktop systems, or towers, it's a gimik. Plus, any decent case has feet that won't scratch, or mark, the surface they rest upon.
 
I'm gonna have to disagree with you guys. I like the lian li a lot better. the xpider just looks tacky and childish... like its suppose to be a creepy crawlers case or something. the lian li, on the other hand, has class and style.
 
Damn, that Chenbro is pretty F'ing sweet, however somthing really has to be done with the name; "Gaming Bomb II" WTF?!?.

I agree :beer:

The Lian Li are pretty fugly, and I do like the chenbro. But I also hope the handles are removable, and it's a shame about the motherboard tray (or lack there of). It would've been nice had it supported BTX too (like the CM Stacker).
 
THat black chenbro is looking sweet. The dual 120s and top blow hole are a good idea. It needs a removeable sliding mobo tray though. Lian Li is nice too, but i would get the V2000 series just so the psu isnt as cramped.
 
The Chenbro case. Looks better IMO. That Lian Li wire mesh front would get annoying after time. Just stare at the pic for 10 minutes.....
 
The Chenbro according to one review lacks a reset switch.

Which is a really dumb and stupid thing to leave out. God knows
how many times I had to use the reset switch every now and then especially during winstalls.
 
I seriously doubt Chenbro would be that stupid after spending all these years catering to the more technically literate end of the market. IAC, that problem is easy to fix.

.bh.

There's the :sun: !
 
sorry i hit the button too fast it does have a reset switch i copied this off the other forum

The case does have a reset switch, if you look at the pictures, you will see the power button on the right, then a small circle, then another small circle. The leftmost is the HD LED, the middle is the reset switch, and the power LED is apart of the power button.

i like the chenbro side and top part but the front part ( the x thing shape) doesn't look good
and the power button is misplaced

lian li still looks better but i like clear side panels

Personally I don't think the power button is misplaced - I would prefer having a power button at the top. Many people place their computers on the floor, meaning a power button at the top is far more practical. It's actually perfect for me, as I have my case on the ground to the left (making a top right button handy (excuse the pun)).
 
I think they are both nice but i prefer the Chenbro.

If you are thinking of getting a new case i would wait for BTX. Yes ATX still has a long life to live but if you can just hold out for another couple of months.
