What gaming case to get?

Hey guys, Thank you all for your advice and links to reviews which I read. After a lot of research and taking into account the money I am prepared to spend on my case and all that I have decided to get the the 690 II Advanced.
Again thanks for all the help and I look forward to putting my computer into it hehe!!

Enjoy :)

It's a great case to work with.

I ordered the Corsair H60 Hydro Cooler a couple of days ago and then decided to upgrade my case.
It was a tough choice but ended up getting the HAF-932, and it is huge. It doesn't look that big on the internet.

I was also considering the 690 II that the OP bought but I am not too fond of the styling, the raised edges with silver inserts turned me off.

That case is definitely not big enough

Thoughts and opinions?

I normally go for Nvidia edition cases for the colour theme of them as I try to keep a black and green theme, but I find there's too much green on that case.

Prefer Nvidia edition cases like the CM690/CM690 II Nvidia Edition or the Silverstone Temjin TJ10 Nvidia Edition that keeps the green minimal.

As for the case itself, then it's a great case being an HAF X. I'd probably go for a case like the HAF X myself if I didn't move my computer around a lot as I take it home and bring it back to Uni, so a large case would be annoying to keep moving whereas I find the CM690 II is fairly small for a high performance case and still plenty of room inside.

It seem this one has a few extras the regular HAF-X doesn't.

Im just not sure I like that much green ....


Meh , I was just Window shopping for now anyway. Ill probably go with a regular HAF-X case when its time. But plenty of time to decide on that :)
