Case thread. The bigger the better. R8 or H8.
muh case. It looks fat from this angle.
>>55164995
Love this case
ok
>>55164995
is this case dated?
>>55164995
I like the overall design, but I'm not putting my components inside a fucking advertisement for nvidia, and fuck EVERYTHING about that color.
>>55165024
If it weren't for that bulge on the side panel, I would really like it.
The side panel case fan cutout just screams "cheap case I got from Best Buy", too.
>>55164995
>The bigger the better
Okay.
>>55165568
What's the name of the case?
>>55165850
Case Labs Magnum. I believe that is the single wide.
Their stuff is actually really good and they have a lot of configuration options, but their Magnum cases are laughably huge.
>>55164995
My case. I fucking LOVE ricer cases and I don't give a fuck what other people think.
>>55164995
i challenge someone to actually post a timestamped picture of this case

best case coming through
>>55166003
They probably move the computer since the desk seems to be in the way?
OP said the bigger the better so I just grabbed a caselabs picture as they do offer some huge cases.
Although this one is bigger. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3a7kKKPs6J8
>>55166013
Shouldn't the top fans be offset away from the mobo. I'm sure Fractal Designs must have a good reason for this.
>>55165568
All that for an aircooled rig with a single case fan. I cringed pretty hard.
>>55166877
"Now this is nice" - /g/
>>55165975
Just bought this case and the rest of my parts get here tuesday so I can set it all up. Is all the room inside worth it for set up?
This is the one I was considering, the amount of fans arouses me.
2 fans in front of drives
2 fans behind drives
2 on top
1 on back

That and the way the door swings and locks with the little clips.

Running an Arc Midi R2 right now. Things get pretty toasty here in summer (35c+ ambient temperature is fairly common), so I didn't want to risk overheating by going with a define. As I expected, I'm already getting 80c+ on a cleaned and repasted 760 (wonder how higher it would be not sitting on an airflow oriented case), and the thing is still pretty quiet with the right components, so I'm certain I made a wise choice.

>>55165541
That side panel ruins it.
Everything else could make it really nice OEM look case.
1/10 for everyone.
None of you plebs have an intricately handcrafted wooden case.
>>55171034
Not yet, but that is a project I have seriously considered. It would be pretty easy and look a hell of a lot better than half the cringey ass gaymen cases they sell these days.

Fractal Define S. Because drive bays are so two thousand and late.
>>55171034
how does it look inside? Did you make your own mounts for everything or is it hacked together?
>>55171117
So you have your OS on a USB or something? Where are the HDDs?
![define_s_open_back[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/Ia2TGnR.jpg "define_s_open_back[1].jpg")
>>55171153
On the otherside. Has space for 3 HDDs and 2 ssds
>>55164995
Forged with the strength, mobility, and timelessness of real Japanese Steel. Ganbare!
Opinions ?

It's easy as fuck to make a proper mount for an HDD or motherboard, the PSU would be a little bit of a challenge though.

Doubt it, or you would have posted a picture with a timestamp.

>>55171436
>I lied on the internet and can't prove anything.
I'm seriously considering getting a Mountain Mods U2-UFO for my next build. It's just about the only case that would allow for a horizontally mounted motherboard WITHOUT sacrificing 5.25in bays.

Uhh sharkoon, a midi tower is supposed to be a smaller variant of mid towers, not larger
>>55171555
No, read my post. It's a Mountain Mods U2-UFO. I'm /probably/ going to end up buying one.
It's a pretty neat (if not terribly pretty) case. Very modular (each side of the cube can be rotated any way you like), spacious but not stupidly huge (18x18x18 cube), lots of panels available with different fan/window/5.25 bay options. Only two issues are the price and the less-than-sleek aesthetic.
Did someone say a Xbox huge case?

>>55171531
>>55171653
So besides size and maybe looks it's fine? I looked for a cheap case with 4 frontal usb ports dust filter and 3 installed fans.
>>55172202
Oh I thought you already had it. Don't know its price, but the case doesn't seem that hot to me. From what I'm seeing on a review, size is the only thing it has going for it. Fans are loud and the temperature results weren't that impressive.
What is your budget and country?
>>55172367
Germany would like to spend max 60€ on the case.
I'm planning a 800€ build with a 480. Pic related are the parts for 510€ but psu will be changed to one with 550 watt since I want to oc the card.
>>55172367
The s28v costs 53€.
>>55172489
>60€
Way too much for that. Fun fact is when I saw the case I thought "I'd pay 40-45€ max for it", and in the review I read they thought the same.
At 60€ you have much better options, such as the aerocool 800, Corsair 100r, fractal design core 2500, bitfenix shinobi, among others.
Out of these, personally I'd choose the fractal. They will all have similar cooling potential (with a slight edge for the fractal, as I said), so you can choose based on design
>>55172562
Thanks for your suggestions.
Could you recommend some nice price/performance fans? (Would like to have 3 or 4 silent ones since at this price there is no insulation.)
I really like the aero-800 but that window and led-fan.. looks like I'll get a Fractal Core 2500.
>>55172802
not him but, corsair af120 or af140 (120/140mm)
>>55172802
If you like the 800 but hate the window you can either step down to the 500, which has no side window, or stretch it a bit and get the 1000 with a smaller window, but is wider and can take both taller cpu coolers and 140mm fans on front and top. The 1000 should be 60 something.
>>55165388
fuck
>>55172968
>10€-15€
Thanks but three of them cost almost the same as the case.
>>55172979
Nice, again tyvm.
>>55173193
>being this much of a poorfag
>>55172968
What about Nanoxia DX12 120?
Costs the half.
>>55173193
If they're too much for you, you can try looking at the noiseblocker blacksilent series. I had those a few years back in both 120 and 140mm, and can confirm they're pretty quiet. Also I'd suggest replacing the aerocool fans with these, I can tell from experience they can be a bit loud
Which case should I get for good air cooling performance and EATX support? The two CPUs and chipset are passive cooled. I've been looking at the Fractal Design Define XL R2 and Phanteks Enthoo Pro. The latter one supports SSI EEB which is a plus, but not necessary, but the first one looks a lot better in my opinion. Any other suggestions?
>>55173304
Not cheaper...
Just getting Nanoxia Deep Silence NDS 120x120 probably.
>>55173956
No, they are, I got mine for around 7€ each. Maybe you saw the blacksilent pros, which are uprated. The regulars are easy to spot (translucid blue blades, they have no leds, no worries about that).
In fact I just check the german prices on computeruniverse, the ones at 15€ are the pros, regulars at 6-7
>>55174102
These are the cheapest 120mm blacksilent noiseblocker at computeruniverse.

>>55165927
I have the same case and I almost got meme'd hard with the stupid bracket and slide-in thing for the hard drives. Why the fuck are they mounted sideways? I had to dig out an L-shaped SATA cable otherwise I would have had to leave the side of my case off just for it to fit.
Who else source 210 here?
>>55175421
Do you have a top view pic? Did it come with dustfilters? Is it true you need a to buy a frame for smaller drives? How's the sound does something vibrate?
