Cant decide help PLZ

Postby OTIKA » Wed Feb 06, 2008 5:16 pm

K well heres my problem. I just dont know what case to go with. everytime i find one i like i find a new one. k well now i got it down to 2 cases.

Thermaltake Xaser VI VG4000SWA Silver / Black Aluminum ATX Full Tower Computer Case

or

U2-UFO (Brushed Aluminum) - Original Top

the price is about the same. only $30 give or take off. i like the windows and want to water cool. the Xaser VI has some nice features. and i like the way the U2-UFO looks and the space.

if anyone has any thoughts let me know. and if you know hands down a better case ill take a look at that one too.

Thanks in advance.

If you got the floor space go with the U2, but I never did care for the look of the Xaser cases.

Dammit bio, every time I see your machine it makes my 240mm rad seem inadequate. :finga:

If only my case had enough room for a 360mm and shroud.
But the jealously/upgrade bug would never let me be happy. :axe:

I will have to admit that the triple rad is a bit overkill for only cooling the CPU, but I like being able to turn off the fans when I'm only surfing the net................. :mrgreen:

yea. it had less than 3000 miles on it when i sunk it that time. by the time we got me out i was knee deep in water while i was sitting at the drivers seat. but i dont know if this was the time i ended up with a gal of water in my oil or not. i have to say jeep makes one hell of a vehicle. it seems that no mater wat i do to it, it just keeps going. maybe im just lucky but i love jeep more and more every time i take it out.

I would also go with the MountainMods.
