Hi all,
I have an old Lian-LI PC-65B right now... I just swapped out my old mobo yesterday and switched to a new PK5 PRO for my Q9550 and my GTX 260 will not fit now... it's blocked by the HDD cage. I have 2 HDD's setup in raid in there and no place to move them. The GTX260 barely fit with the old mobo and im not surprised it hits the cage now and doesn't fit at all. I have read that I can buy some type of mod for this that replaces the cage with something smaller but im kind of thinking of just buying a new/larger case.
What's good out there for lots of room and bling and not a ton of money? (<$200) the fiance loves the cases with bling and I do too but I want something that's easy to use (im still a novice at putting cpu stuff together) and has plenty of room so the newer video cards which are huge will not run into this sort of problem im having now. Obviously the case I have now was designed for shorter video cards like the 7900GTX I have in there for now.
Also do most cases come fully assembled? I don't assemble well lol. I basically just swapped mobo's yesterday and left my power supply and hdd's and rom in place. I know that with a new case I will need to install these and I hope it's not too difficult.
Thanks
