ok so i have found some cases im interested in, yet i dont know which one i want. so should i go with the super lanboy or the microfly? any case recommendations would be great, yet if have a maximum budget of 120 bucks.
 
My favorite case for under $100 is the Lian-Li PC-7B. Great cooling, great looks(IMO), and very solid aluminum construction. The Super Lanboy is a solid case, I just don't like doors. The Microfly is a microATX case just to let you know. I have the Aspire X-Qpack, which is a clone, and it is a nice microATX case. Definitely not as solid as the Lian Li, but much smaller, easy to work in, and decent cooling.
 
o dang thats a nice case!! ya i know that its micro atx, im work with computers all the time, and i have a micro atx mobo, i was thinkin about going up to atx but the mobo's r pretty high in price and plus new drr2 memory that cost is high and i dont have that much money ever, need to get a job!
 
I have a Super Lanboy and its great. Im using it right now and its keeping my temps nice and cool. One problem I do have with it is that it does scratch easily if you open up your case often. You can probably get the Lanboy for cheaper as Ive seen it go on sale for way less than $100. In fact, I got mines on sale at compusa for $50 a couple years ago.
 
o nice price, lucky. ya it looks nice, but man i need money. i like all of these cases but all of em are different but yet all good. m-atx mobos dont look good in atx cases huh?
 
They look fine, just small. Just most normal ATX motherboards have a lot more extra features than microATX motherboards, and more room.
 
frys has the cheapest price for the microfly right now, as I'm currently pricing them out myself.
They have the blue window case for 60 bones with a 30 dolla rebate and free shipping.

Just so's ya knows

oo! i wish i had money, i need a new psu with modular cables, and those on the x2 are skinny and small!
 
If the prices were that high when I bought my MicroFly, I would have switched to the Silverstone Sugo.
 
ya i love the sugo cases, but the psu is over the cpu, i dont like that. but it makes it small!
 
If you get the heatsink that silverstone makes I believe it is suppose to sit right up against the power supply so they kinda work together for cooling.
 
For that budget, Fry's has the Antec P180 and also the 900 for $119.00. Looks like the 900 is on back order right now, though. =/
 
I have the super lanboy and it is a nice case just not that durable and pretty flimsy but other then that it is a great case.:)
 
If your still looking, check this out....

I was looking at both of those cases and was recently schooled by Dworley, resident SFF pimp.... check this bad boy out, its called the x-gene

if you like it, Dworley and someone else are both selling theirs, so you might get the hook up for cheap, the website cost is 98 shipped (to michigan anyway, your shipping might vary)
