Complete System Upgrade
 
Im sick of my shit case.


So

I am considering the following objects.

Either the
Istyle or Breeze Case I was going for the Breeze case but the Istyle is very easy to swap in and out. You can see them at www.nexustek.nl
Anyone got a fave out of the two.

Second.
A water cooling case to work with whichever case I get...one that is under 200$ or 150ยค would be nice.

Thanks.

The breeze's internal design is nice, and the istyle looks nice as well.

also here a couple of water cooled cases from koolance: http://www.koolance.com/shop/default.php?cPath=28_43

but which of the two...?????


i dont like koolance much because
1.Their cases are ugly and hard to access with that front panel.
2.Too big
3.Theyre not availible in ireland. or much of the uk.

quite honestly I don't care for the looks of either one, but the breeze has noise absorbtion stuff.. although the istyle looks a tad better and easier to swap.. if you're going to do that alot...

I also found this one

can take up 2 5 1/4 " bays or the extra PSU space in the bottom of tower cases or can be used as an external one.

Got some decent reviews.....

If I dont get the Breeze or Istyle,

what case would fit that watercooling unit...it looks pretty damn solid....


The Istyle I am interested in because...i may be reviewing stuff for Techwarelabs and might be good for swapping in and out.... but its no big deal to have to "screw" with my computer.... hehe

why not go with antec P160?

Prometheus 11-05-2004 07:30 PM

is that water cooled?

eviltechie 11-05-2004 07:33 PM

no it isnt

but why do you need water?
i think its too costly to go into water to make OCing purpose worth while

(taken in account that OCing is a hobby too for some, it is still too expensive)

and also with the awesome heatsink designs out now, you dont really need water to OC quite a bit

P160 has 1 x 120mm for the front and 1x120mm for the rear

along with SP-120 heatsink from thermalright, and another 120mm on top of that, i see no problems cooling the hell out of your OC'ed setup

and it can be quiet too
no pump noises, no higher than usual electric bill
