I'm torn between getting an Antec 1080AMG or a nice coolmaster case! Which one of these cases will give me better cooling? The antec case has 1 more fan ,but then it's not made out of alluminum like the coolmaster cases... Any suggestions would be great!
general speaking extreme overclockers will tell you that aluminum cases will give you better cooling. cooler master and lian li are so far two of the best chasis makers. so to make the reponse short, i think in this case a coolermaster case will give you better performance however, you pay what you get, they don't come cheap. by the way.... do you have any specific module in mind?.... the newest wavemaster is looking pretty good <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> <a target=new class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.coolermaster.com/ad/wavesite.html">wave master</a>

The wavemaster does look like a pretty nice case. Well, I like almost all Coolermaster cases so I'd recommend them over any Antec case. You do definetly get what you pay for...a totally awsome case.

Well I'll be going with Coolmaster then. I'm not sure what model I'm getting yet though. That wave master does look pretty sweet though! Thanks for the help!<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

I'm thinking about selling my current Coolermaster on Ebay now and getting the Wave Master. I definetly would if it already had a window in it, but since it doesn't, I'm only thinking about it.
LOL>... now i got you into the wavemaster <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0"> <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0">.... anyways.. i think they do sell side panels separatly, tho i am not sure if they already made the extra side panel addon for wave master yet. look out for it. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Yeah, I know of a few places where you can buy the separate side panel, but that'll be like $30 more added onto the price.
<a target=new class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.sundialmicro.com">Sundialmicro</a> is an offical online coolermaster store. they usually sell anything and everything that coolermaster have to offer.

$38 for a panel with a window...screw that. I'll stick with the case I've got. I am however, interested in that coolermaster keyboard. It looks like a full size laptop keyboard....if it has the same feel as a laptop keyboard, I'll pay the $60 for it.
i agree with you on the keyboard, only thing is i've got a wireless keyboard now already and it's hard for me to switch back to those annoying wire ones. i am surprised that they didn't think of that. come out with a wireless version.

Where do you really need to go with your keyboard, that you need a wire<b>less</b>? All that wireless crap is going to give you cancer <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0">
you misread my post. i said i already got an wireless keyboard and mouse now. and it's hard to switch back to wired ones. so in another words.. i DO NOT want wires!! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif" border="0">

Yeah you two, but you have to remember other people are reading this as well.

That was the score BAM had there, but I don't know where he came up with it. He seemed to be giving himself points for nothing. I definetly had way more points than him...Terri was the only one keeping him above water <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0">

You mean to say the hairy women? I'm sick of investing in the Athlon XP platform....time to save for the Hammer! I did splurge on a new sound card a couple days ago. The sound on the Epox really sucks compared to the sound on the MSI board.
i love italian women !! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Coolermaster Keyboard.... $36.99 at NewEgg. Sundailmicro wanted $60 for it. I hope it's just as nice as a laptop keyboard. Smooth and quiet.<BR><BR><img src="http://images10.newegg.com/productimage/23-129-001-01.JPG">

I got my keyboard, and well, I'm less than impressed. I can't put my finger on it but something about it just doesn't feel right. Guess this bad boy is off to eBay.
