very nice..... but can you get any better case? thats too basic for your high end hardware, you need something bigger like the Centurion 590 or CM 690 cases

theyre also by coolermaster but theyre newer.

Nice system m8

Id recommend the Cooler Master CM-690 case as well.

Ive just got one for my new rig, and it is the best case i have ever had to date.

Plenty of room and loads of fan options for cooling

Plus, it's really nice for cable management, and damned good looking to boot.

In it's size and price range, the only other case that comes close to it is it's "Little Brother" the RC 590.

**kris23** · Apr 12, 2008, 06:52 PM

in a way, the 590 is even more powerful than the 690

its got way more fans

cozumel · Apr 12, 2008, 06:56 PM

Ditto all the previous comments on the case. Always nice to have the extra space inwhich to work plus the improved cooling etc etc

BulletTheory · Apr 12, 2008, 07:52 PM

looks cool

I would have gotten that case but for me to buy these components I had to get a cheaper casing.. the CM 690 is totally out of my budget.. and the RC 590 is not available from in the market here and if it was presuming the mentality of the shopkeepers regarding IT products here, it would have been expensive due to the no. of fans in IT..

That's fair enough. You had a budget and the 330 will serve the purpose. However, if you like tinkering with your build it may be something you choose to upgrade sometime in the future. Either way, I'm sure you will have a tonne of gaming fun on your new rig. Good luck!!

Hi Panging. I haven't been well. An old health problem from 2002 has returned to bite me hard! The hospital have allowed me back at work only 3 days a week as of last week and I find out what the future holds for me 8th May. No Scuba for me right now!!! Bottom line is I could be buggered...

and to mos2k, since you cant get a better case, i suggest getting a few good high CFM fans to use, keeping the inside cool is really necessary
