OK I've decided I need a new case. I currently have an old HAF 932 with the big fans removed in favor of 8 120mm fans; 4 on the side, 2 on the bottom and 2 on the top.
This setup has worked very well for me over the years, by keeping my components extremely cool, and my case practically dust free due to the positive pressure airflow.
But the fans are getting old and making all sorts of noise despite my best attempts to re-grease the bearings. So I want a new case, one that can keep my GPUs and my CPU as cool as possible and hopefully equal, or better the performance of my current setup.
Plus I need lots of space as I have SLI, and a great cable management system would also be nice.
So far all I've really looked at the HAF X. Seems to be very highly recommended for people that want not only tons of space, but maximum air flow.
It's been so long since I've shopped for a new case though that I don't just want to jump the gun and buy it without asking opinions. So which case is the best for airflow and space?
I'd prefer not to spend over $200 USD if possible, but if a case is really that much better, then I could spend a bit more perhaps..
