White? Attachment 105460

Its a tempting color when you hate seeing dust/finger prints on your case (all the colors it offers are glossy). :)

Actually, when I had a look at it, it doesn't seem too bad.

I don't even consider white components anymore. Not only does it make the computer feel old, but I really hate how they look.

White accenting can be cool, but not the WHOLE case in white.
But then again, I could just be biased.

The white one does look not bad.
One thing to consider is where you will be putting it. If its going in a room/desk that's very pale or light, then yea a white case would be good.

Black cases are usually good for anywhere, which I guess is why is the most common colour.
That, and they dont stick out like a sore thumb when the only light in the room is glowing fans...

However, red is also my favourite colour too...

I actually don't prefer black cases, having said that mine is black but didn't have a choice or much to choose from.

Silver cases are my current favorite, white might not be bad. You've mentioned you don't like the white, so sounds like your decision is made.

Hey guys, hope you don't mind me asking but i was wondering what you all think.

I intend to sell the case I currently have (here) and get a new one from NZXT. I'm currently look at the NZXT Phantom (here), haven't decided between black or white.

What is your opinion everyone? :)

P.S. If you are interested in purchasing the case, please PM me instead of posting.

Lol... The white version looks like something that came from Star Wars.

I don't mind white at all, and with the right case it looks great. Beige, however...

I love some of the colors available now.

>>Edit: That case looks awesome in white.

I had to look at it twice as the first time I was like

Anyway, I think the design is great! I love the shape of it. The layout looks good as well; good cable management; good cooling (i'd like to know the color of the LEDs tho). I hate the red. I'd get black but the white is pretty cool too.

Holy crap. I saw that case at Fry's Electronics today, in white. It is very pretty, and looks awesome.

Here is my rig as of tonight, with a "shiny" new case ("shiny" meaning matte

)

This case, the ThermalTake Armor A90, was clearly supposed to have cable management, but thermaltake decided not to, or whatever. With a little creative dremel work, I cut out the place that should be available for cable management, and covered the metal with a few layers of aluminum tape, so it does not cut the wires. Then I was able to successfully tuck most of the wires where they should be. This case is supposed to be a mid-ATX, but it is borderline full tower, IMO.
