I just got a Hiper 580W Type-R. The thing is, it doesn't fit in my Lian-Li PC-V1000.
I have been thinking about getting a new case before, and using the Lian-Li for the second system. but now that my shiny new hiper doesn't fit in my case, I've kinda brought it forward.
Now, the kind of case I want is one with:
I normally buy things from www.msy.com.au, or look things up from www.staticice.com.au
Hardware to go into the new case:
Foxconn C51XEM2AA Nforce 590 (probably Foxconn's best board. I was impressed that this board came from Foxconn)
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4600+ @ 2760MHZ, 1.375V (currently gets kinda hot if I set the voltage much higher)
A-Data 2x1GB DDR2-800 @ 460MHZ, 4-4-4-12, 2.4V
Nvidia 7950 GT at 710MHZ, 1.6V (I have reached 730MHZ at 1.65V, but summer heat is an issue)
Creative X-Fi XtremeMusic
Netgear 108MB/S wireless card
Hiper 580W Type-R (blue, really shiny)
1 x Seagate 200GB IDE
1 x LG GSA-H10A 16X DVD burner
probably a watercooling kit in future
I still need to make a sig for this setup
I have been thinking about getting a new case before, and using the Lian-Li for the second system. but now that my shiny new hiper doesn't fit in my case, I've kinda brought it forward.
Now, the kind of case I want is one with:
- lots of space. I will probably be putting water cooling in it in future.
- light, so I can take it to LAN's
- can see everything inside, so at least one big window. (I kinda like those all acrylic ones)
- has really good airflow. This is a must, as my current setup gets kinda hot, especially since we're in the summer here.
- is good for modding
- is not too expensive. I'd prefer it to be around AU$100, but I may consider one around $200 depending on how good it is
