hmm, i'm trying to decide between this, the antec p160 and the thermaltake shark for a new computer case.
In my opinion, the shark wins aesthetically-wise, however i'm concerned not only about the lack of filtering for the side panel (honeycomb vents would allow a great deal of dust in), but also the problematic front fan filter.
I like the look of the aurora, and especially commend its cooling prowers, however I don't intend to watercool, so i'm wondering if this case may be overkill. Also, for a case in this pricerange i would have expected a removeable motherboard tray.
The antec p160 comes from the most reputable brand out of the three, however having only 1x 120mm fan will probably hurt the cooling in comparison to the gigabyte chassis. It is, however, smaller in stature, which is a benefit.
Can anyone with a p160 or thermaltake shark chime in and give a rough comparison to the gigabyte aurora? Anyone with any knowledge regarding this matchup, and any insight into which case I should pick up? Ideally i'd like to get the praetorian 730, however that hasn't even hit the shores of Australia yet, so i guess ill just have to suffice with these three being the candidates. Thanks in advance
