:) Guys, am here again for ur much needed advice.

Thikin bout gettin a cabinet for my RIG :D

Currently am on some OLD ZEB cabinet , My RIG : mATX MOBO, GTX 460, HDD X3 & VX 450w PSU.

Budget : Strictly 5.5k :ashamed:

Usage : Gaming, Over clocking & need a proper Air intake Exhaust & Cooling facilities ( Temps are my real worries ).

I've zeroed in on NZXT LEXA S. what do u guys think ? Recommend this ? :huh: .

I've no IDEA , mrcool63 suggested me Coolermaster HAF 912.

Requirement : Am looking for a caby that's SLEEK NEAT & SEXY , just like NZXT LEXA !

Thanks very much :)
 
I am not a fan of the spongy dust filters ass they end to reduce air flow a LOT....I prefer the plastic ones from Cooler Master. So if its airflow, I would be a bit worried about that. You want a great cabby...get the 690 II Basic or advanced, though I have no clue on the actual prices. They are very understated, have great airflow and superb build quality. But to be truthful, I really dont like any of NZXT's designs except the Phantom.
 
the problem with guardian 921 is no of hdd bays are very less. the unturned hdd bays will once again obstruct bigger cards like gtx 580.
 
well , i got my cooler master 690 advance ll last month ,,,, and well ,,, i am pretty happy with it, u have space for 2 concealed rads (240mm each) and upto 9 fans (1 for the mobo) , 8 fans if u buy the side panel one,...

the case retails at 5.4k and 5.8 for the windowed one !!! comes with 3 stock fans !!

The NZXT Tempest EVO easily demolishes the Cooler Master 690 < and its derivatives like the Advanced II >, my friend runs his Phenom IIx6 at stock HSF < NO OC > at temperatures ~ 28 degree at idle and 35 degree on load hard to beat a cabinet of that caliber + it is shooting your budget by 300/- ~ the Cooler Master comes with only two fans bundled, this gives you six + one LED
 
Thanks all for u'r much needed input :D

Bought NZXT LEXA S :D Enjoying it :D Am surprised by the CPU temps both @ Idle & load :), all that is left is cable routing & management !

Thanks all again :)
