I got the cm elite 430 and my fsp saga 400w psu's 4 pin connector does not reach the mobo as its bottom mounted. Now I've got to go to the city again and try to find an extension cable for it :(

be warned the top left corner of the motherboard bay is horribly congested

^^ I told you, the Cooler Master eLite 430 has poor cable management compared to the NZXT Gamma + is more expensive.
 
nah I'm sure it would be the same with any cabinet that has a bottom mounting for psu including the gamma. the cable is simply too short... the vx450 on the other hand has much longer cable.
 
430 is stupid compared to the gamma. first the hdd's open into the cabinet and are not turned like gamma. this causes longer graphics cards not to fit. also as mentioned the cable management is quite poor. even with longer cables it aint that great..
 
lolz . phail :P gamma kicks A** anyday at dat price !!!! ur cm wouldnt let u MANAGE ur cables :no:
 
i still maintain that i don't care for cable management but i agree that the cm 430 definitely isn't worth the money; maybe i should have gone for a bijli or something.
 
^^ Now Sire if you find a place to get the cable extension for the 4-pin / 8-pin EPS 12V connector please tell me too.
 
I don't wish to hijack this thread, but sadly I notice a lot of action here and got me thinking...

What do you think about the iBall gaming cabinets - Rider, Bullet and Velocity - they all look uber-cool... and are in the 4K-5K price range as per IT Depot's website? iBall

These i-ball cabinets doesnt provide sufficient info abt GPU card length... Also the build is a huge no..

U can get,

NZXT Gaurdian 921RB - 3.7K

NZXT Lexa S - 4.4k

CM 690 II plus ~ 5K
 
^^ Best price / performance cabinet in the market NZXT Gamma + 3 x 120mm fans ~ 2700/-, the best deal in my view for a head[value]-hunter.
 
iball has cheap plastics that break quite easily and misleading dimensions. further airflow is next to nonexistent and no cable management.. now u understand;)
 
i got 2 CM Silent R4s 1500rpm for 670 bucks...r these good fans? they're very silent but dont seem to push much air
