Hey!
I'm on the market for a good cabinet to house my PC in. Please suggest what you think I should get. Below are the factors:
- Need nice and large full-ATX (non-negotiable, as I want lot of space inside the cabinet).
- Preferably want a pull-out motherboard tray, but that's optional (I've grown used to my CM Stacker 830 ).
- Need features as much as possible (USB3, tool-less, etc).
- Cooling has to be pretty good by default, in addition to water-cooling ability. Wide availability of parts for the cabinet is a plus.
- Price under Rs. 10k, as less as possible but can increase budget if the result is dramatically better than the Stacker 830.
The Antec 1200 strikes me as uninspiring, and ThermalTake has very less presence in my place. Lian Li and Corsair do have good stuff, but they seem to be priced unrealistically. CoolerMaster has the geographical spread and stocks/availability; but the HAF-X is plagued with build quality issues (too plasticky and arrives damaged) and price of the other models is such, that I would not buy them unless somebody could attest to the model's worthiness.
Any other brands that are available in Bangalore? Or any model from the above brands that you are totally convinced about?
