In need of a new Case

[StarLancer]

Not really a problem with mine but my LCD is Black and so are the new speakers i got.
Im looking for a black case with 2x120mm fans (1 intake 1 outtake).
prefrably $100 USD or less before shipping.
I dont want anything funky like aliens or stuffs. Just a plain Black Case.

Ive done some searchs on newegg.com and a lil of Frozencpu.com but nothing really caught my eye much. The Lain-Li (Sp?) 60B looks good but its got 80mm fans in it and i really dont want to bother with those.

Sonata perhaps, the p180 (black) would fit the bill, but i think it's out of your budget.

Good morning and wrong forum. Look through Cases&Cooling. Then post there.

For <<$100 Antec SLK3000B has a door. For right at $100 Lian Li PC-7B Plus from SVC.com.

PC-7B Plus FTW

In AT's Cases and Cooling forum, look up "Centurion", if the AT search engine will handle it, or just scroll down looking for similar threads to yours.

The Enermax Pandora is the case for you. :thumbsup:
It's clean looking and not expensive. It would need some modding to get a 120mm fan to mount in the front. But the case is so classic looking that it would be well worth the effort.

Sorry about the wrong forum. I didnt even look
My Bad. Gotta do that from now on.

The Lian-Li PC7B looks like the case for me. Its everything ive wanted in a case!
Thx for your help guys!

Don't be sorry...
At least a case is considered "hardware". There have been so many "software" and "OS" questions in here, you can't even count them all.

That's a nice clean case. :thumbsup:

Antec SLK3000B is only $48. It is very roomy and quiet. The case features quick-release HDD and floppy bays. One can put a large 120 x 38 mm Panaflo at the front and back of the case.

The case comes with a front door. What I did was to drill two holes on the door so I can access the power and reset buttons without opening the door. I rarely use the DVD burner and floppy drive.

plain, black, 120mm fans = sonata.

 

[fireontheway]

SLK3000B or Lian Li PC 7B Plus.

 

[dev0lution]

Sonata II sounds like a mid-tower choice.

This is also a clean case

...if you like that cheap plastic look. haha

I'd take a look at the centurian, definately, its a very well made case, I was more than impressed when I got it for my gf. Very nice build quality and good airflow. The intake is a 80mm, however the exaust is 120mm. There is also a 80mm side intake fan. The mesh front definately helps with the intake.

3000-B already mentioned or the Compucase 6A19 from directron.com - basically the same case. If you want a Lian Li quality case on a budget and are willing to put a bit of effort into modding the cooling (if necessary), take a look at the Beantech Igloo (same as the Kingwin 424 series) aluminum cases on directron. Also look at the new Kingwin 523 - well designed and you can unplug the lighting... The CoolerMaster Centurion line also has some models with 120mm mounts f/r.

Thermaltake Tsunami is an awesome case. This was my first true high end case and i was/still am very pleased with it. It is so light weight (but sturdy). It has 1, 120mm intake and outake as well as an 80mm on the side. High recommend this case, if you can bite the price.
Mine also came with a silk towel to clean the glossyness

Not bad,unfortunately the I/O port is not interchangeable.

 

[jdkick]

Antec makes a nice a case. I've had my eye on the Silverstone stuff these days tho...

 

[Penth]

Another vote for a Sonata II

 

[Darkhawk28]

I have an Antec 3700BQE and love it...

Cheapest price I've found for it... $67.62

Enermax Venus?

I've got a Silver TT Tsunami and it fits your bill if you get the one in black, just make sure you get the one w/out the window as the one w/ the window is much louder and doesn't look as pretty

edit: here is the newegg link for the black one w/out window it can be had cheaper elseware just check pricegrabber Thermaltake Tsunami VA3000BNA Black Aluminum ATX Mid Tower Computer Case - Retail
