August 20, 200916 yr My roommate's i7/4870x2 rig I built for him earlier this year uses a CM 690 (standard edition) and let's just say it *barely* accommodates his hardware. If you're going high-end do yourself a favor and give your hardware the room it wants to breathe. Just that much easier to install/uninstall as well.This things huge for a midtower case. I've seen no problems fitting my heat sinks and new GTX 260 in there. And besides, I get fantastic air movement throught it because of the option to run *every* wire behind the motherboard tray. (Using a Corsair 550VX) I'll post pics very soon.Good luck Seaox, nice case! Though I'm not a fan of most of the Lian Li's hard drive cages. They're ugly looking and I'm heavy on aesthtics. ___________________________________________________________________________________ Zachary Waddell -- Caravan Driver -- Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/zwaddell Avsim ToS Avsim Screenshot Rules
August 24, 200916 yr I just purchased the CoolerMaster 840. It is awesome. You can buy the windowed panel for $40 on their website. I just finished cutting my own window in the Halflife 2 logo since that was one of my favorite games in addition to FS9 and FSX. I am buying as I go for a new build in Oct when I get some bonus money for a I7 core. I already purchased an NVidia 280GTX overclocked edition and a new 24 in widescreen. Cant wait to run on new platform since I am still running an old AMD FX-60 OCed to 2.8gz. I sold my 8800GTX on Amazon and used some of that money for the 280 GTX. Runs great even on old system. But the ATSC 840 case is beautiful, though simple but can easily be modded to your liking. Aluminum sure cuts easier then steel. :( Timothy Murphy

Silverstone TJ10Which one do you think I should use for my i7950, Asus P6T v2, with overclocking.Opinions please!!Thanks ArnoldObviously I am partial to Lian-Li, having an A77B.
