Sorry if this is the wrong room, but I just saw the CM Black Stacker 830 at Fry's yesterday. This thing is the biggest case on the shelf...damn. I was thinking of getting one a while back but now that i see it in person...wow...its so damn huge...do i need all this space for my components? It looks like a killer case though, but i don't know if i have enough components to put into this thing. :D
 
I love my black CM 830. Yes, is huge. No doubt about it.

Heck, I don't have a ton of components in mine either...but airflow was a major consideration in purchasing (and space...I had a centurion 5, which I still love (three others in the house), but they are tight to work in). This was a breeze to get up and running.

Sounds good. If the matx boards don't come out soon for the Conroe, I might go with the axt form soon with this slick case. I went back to Fry's and played around with it. The quality is there alright. This case is very eye catchy..
:D
 
Yeah for a big cat like me, I have a T01 and working in it is really nice, I used to have a chieftec dragon, and even that was a little difficult to fit my hands in.
 
Think that is big? Wait untill you see the MozartTX

I saw it in Maximum PC magazine. It look pretty cool also. Its big but, it doesn't take much surface area though.

I know the Fry's in North Houston wants $249.99 for it. Not too shabby.

I guess that isn't that bad a price, but I hate paying tax!!
 
Is there any difficulties with this case that I should know about? I am probably going to order one off newegg within the next week or so.... I want maximum airflow and don't want to buy another case for a while.

Ordering a couple 150 gig raptors and a conroe 6700 @ the same time. I'll order the mb and ram a couple of weeks later.....

Recently got my x1900xtx, gamextream 700, and nec 3550 dvd burner as well as an lg204 widescreen (20.1 inch).

Don't take this as gospel, but I heard that sometimes its hard to get the video card to line up with the expansion bay, but they may have fixed it, maybe not, someone else might know. Otherwise it seems pretty sweet, sounds like you will have a pretty stout rig there.
 
I am thinking about building a Conroe machine. Since I can't relocate my motherboard to just any case, If I keep the old motherboard and CPU a new case will need to be purchased for the Conroe rig. I may go with the CM Stacker 830. I thought about updating my dual Opteron setup to the 830 for its superior cooling, but there isn't room for my dual PSU setup.
 
Why not the 810? Then you can slap a winder on the there and see yer pretties! Plus it's got the dual 120 in/out that pretty much pwns for airflow.
 
You can only put 1 psu in the 810, the T01 has 2 psu mounting spots.
