FK 320 or Antec SX830 poll

[cdternie]

I'm faced with a case decision now. With everyone's help I've narrowed it down to:

Antec SX830
or
Fong Kai 320

votes please? i hate decisions like this...

Thanks

I appologize for the double topic post...

 

[ryko212]

Get the fong kai....it looks better. Nothing like basing your descision on aesthetics

 

[rarebear]

I have a Antec SX830 and it is cool as hell..
Drives slide out on rails
HD cage has latch and pops out
Side pannel has latch and keylock like cabinet to come off
and has room for 4x80mm fans and it comes with 2
you can get it for $74 at
IBUYER.NET

The Fong Kai 320 comes with no fans and is $98 and has little air holes in front of case for cooling..

Antec SX830 you won't be sorry

 

[shiznut123]

SX830

 

[cdternie]

plenty of antec fans here

 

[Wingznut]

Yeah, but the Antec is ultra ugly! :disgust:

The FK-320 costs a little more, but is a very, very, nice case.

Btw, the FK-320 does come with a 92mm fan in the rear with duct. And the holes in the front are more than large enough for the (optional) 92mm or 120mm front fan to pull air through. The drives are on rails, and the HD cage also pulls out.

Here's a couple pics of the inside of my case:

yeah the case looks really roomy, Wingznut PEZ. nice ide cables, too frozencpu?

as for this debate, I'm still not decided. i've read so many good reviews on them both... argggg

SX830
i love mine, amazing airflow, easy to work with(putting in drives is so damn easy) but it is most certainly NOT a lan party case, weighs too much

 

[Wingznut]

Thanks!

I got the cables from PCcables.com.

 

[cdternie]

thanks for the help so far, but i'm still not at a conclusion anyone else wanna share their opinion?

Antec SX830

 

[Lightingguy]

Another happy FK320. Roomy, good cooling.

 

[hagbard]

Ignore the Antec drones...the Fong Kai 320 is far better than anything Antec produces. I'll probably make it my next case ;-)

[cdternie]

doh, yeah i remember hearing about your bad PS, hagbard. sorry about that =]

 

[ddiccico]

Antec

 

[markymark618]

I have a YS 120 in front and the 92 in the back. I plan to ghetto rig another 80 or 92 in front of the hardrive cage. There is a space for it! BTW....I have the Fong Kai 320

<< Yeah, but the Antec is ultra ugly! >>



Don't call her ugly!! I dumped my girlfriend for the sx830!!!!

 

[glenn1]

have the Antec SX830... it's totally spoiled me to working with other folks systems, with their crappy generic cases. The Antec is a awesome case.

 

[AMD4ME2]

I love my antec sx830.. roomy great cooling.. its the best case I have ever worked with!

SX830!

 

[Jhhnn]

Pick the one that looks the best to you, or flip a coin. Can't really go wrong either way. The Antec is slightly better price-wise.

 

[ryko212]

Gotta put my two cents in again....
Just for the record I dumped my girlfriend for the fong kai....those curves, that supple glow......damn women are just too jealous

I just had to get rid of one of my time suckers...i think i made the correct decision.
thank you for your moral support

Yeah, i'll probably end up tossing a coin over the whole ordeal. Thanks for the help though.

and ryko212, your ex-woman is probably going to steal the front bezel off your FK or something
