[coolcrook]

watever do u mean by tht post hardboy

cud sum1 plz tell me which cabinet to buy

 

[Rockyme2002]

hmm. say bout 3k

For about 3k u cud get the slk3700 i guess but without the PSU....not sure thou....
or there r normal ibox grabit cabbies available wit 300w PSU's available for 1.5k

I think the SLK1650 comes with a Smartpower PSU as well for around 3.5K. Would be a good deal
If the Antec design doesnt impress you, you could just go for any of the ibox/zebronic/mercury kinda cases and opt out of a PSU, the cabby alone should cost you under 1K i guess. The remaining 2K you could put in a good PSU like an Antec Smartpower or a VIP Powersafe.

I would recommend you the KPPL ZB 01,very good cabinet.Should cost you around 4k without PSU.
Apollyon,our fellow hardware fellow has it.You can ask him about it.
For PSU, i guess Antec SmartPower 400Watt should be sufficient.Just my opinion.

DarkLord just wanted to know whats so special about it that it costs 4k?

its a very very very nice cabinet!!!

with removable HDD cage, very long chassis, front door with lock, chimney fan, USB, audio and firewire connectors, etc etc......

 

[archish]

ok it looks nice but i got usb,audio and firewire on my mercury cabinet

still i dont like to spend 4k on a cab

My *front door* already has a lock, how else would my home be safe? hyeah:

On a serious note, who's gonna be swiping optical drives from a case?

 

[SunnyBoi]

nah...hiding them, cabby looks gr8

believe me, i've seen mask's cabby (same model) and just the look rocks...IMHO, looks better than all the antecs in the world...

 

[Darklord]

Its a Server Chassis basically,not meant for desktops.

Almost all Server Chassis have those front locks.

@ Archish,
I just recommended it to you,as its a decent case.If you dont want, dont buy it, nobody is forcing you isnt it ?
