RE: SETHD13'S NEW COMPUTER COMMISION - sethd13 - 05-25-2013 Nah im sticking with one. So does anyone see any superfluous parts or any parts that NEED to be upgraded The fans in the 300R are 120mm and 140mm. In the $30 cheaper model, 200R its 120mm and 120mm. Will that make a large difference? RE: SETHD13'S NEW COMPUTER COMMISION - yottabyte - 05-25-2013 Fan size isn't all that matters. Position, RPM and general design of the case also plays into how good cooling you get. You can't really know how well air circulates through a system without testing it. Try looking up user reviews for the 200R and see what they say about how well cooled it is. RE: SETHD13'S NEW COMPUTER COMMISION - devilquak - 05-26-2013 It might be too much for your budget, but take a look at the Cooler Master HAF XM. It's nice, big, and sexy as hell, mainly because it's what I've got. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119257&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleAdwords&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-_-pla-_-Computer+Cases-_-N82E16811119257&gclid=CJbe2eHfsrcCFQ9dQgodT3sAKA RE: SETHD13'S NEW COMPUTER COMMISION - bvcxzmn - 05-26-2013 The 200R is a compact version of the 300R. If I were you, I would go with the 300R, more space = better cable management, easier to work with, and better airflow. EDIT: Or better yet, you could go with the windowed 300R for only $10 more. Windows are awesome and well worth it in my opinion. I would go with that if I were you.

Also why are windows good? RE: SETHD13'S NEW COMPUTER COMMISION - bvcxzmn - 05-26-2013 Windows are good because with them you can see the inside of your case, which looks awesome, especially with LEDs, which you can easily get with your fans. I would go with extra fans. They're not too essential, but you might as well. I personally own these fans which are a really good price per fan. I haven't had any problems with mine so far and I've had them for almost a year. They are great filler fans if you have extra fan slots. Also, I found out that the case can actually support a total of 5 140mm fans and 1 120mm fan or 4 140mm fans and 3 120mm fans including the fans that come with the case. You can do either configuration, it doesn't make too much of a difference. Here's a list of fans you can get: 140mm fans 120mm fans RE: SETHD13'S NEW COMPUTER COMMISION - sethd13 - 05-27-2013 would i need to up my Power Supply at all?

Nah, I'd just go with Windows 7. RE: SETHD13'S NEW COMPUTER COMMISION - bvcxzmn - 05-28-2013 (05-27-2013, 20:50)sethd13 Wrote: would i need to up my Power Supply at all? For fans? No, they don't take up much power at all. RE: SETHD13'S NEW COMPUTER COMMISION - sethd13 - 06-01-2013 Everything has gone up in price.... WHY DID YOU TELL ME TO WAIT.
