    I just recently updated my workstation. My previous "goto" solution was the dual Xeon scene. But after reading and considering, and ditching any preconceptions about more is always better, I ended up with my current config, granted in my previous server case, or should I say trailer house . It works out for my HD config, and lets me hang many stealth fans . Current WEI for CPU & mem is 7.7, and I don't miss those dual Xeons at all, since I'm not serving tons of I/O request for other clients . Instead the higher OC serves my fewer more immediate needs pleasantly faster, and much more economical. Investment on mobo, memory, CPU & cooler was a hint over $800, compare to my $1.6k+ for my last dual Xeon kit, with less memory.

    Hello Static.


    I have a Cosmos RC-1000, YMMV but mine has ventilation problems, it is so sealed against excess noise that it needs an intake vent in the side panel to add in cooling the GPU; I intend to remedy that for my next build.

    Here's what I'm using for now, a very good mid tower imo; the nice thing about Cooler Master is that they have the PSU at the bottom of the case.

    COOLER MASTER RC-690-KKN1-GP Black SECC/ ABS ATX Mid Tower


    Here's a nice full tower a lot of people like, ready built for water cooling.
