Good day.
I'm having a little problem, I can't decide what casing to pick for my new build. The build contains:
GigaByte GA-P35-DS3L, Intel Core 2 Duo E8400, XFX GeForce 8800 GTX 768MB DDR3, Samsung SHS202N⁄BEBN 20x, Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro (Socket 775), Samsung Spinpoint 750GB and either a Corsair VX550W or a HX520W. Maybe even a HX620 if I am feeling very good about myself.
Important to know is that I am trying to get a good casing for a quite low price, since I still have to buy a new monitor and my budget isn't endless. I am from the netherlands, but don't hesitate to link to newegg products or things like that.
The only big drawback is the lack of Lian Li's.
The Lian's available to me are on the following page:
http://www.perfect-systems.nl/producten.asp
Once you get there, type Lian Li in the searchfield in the top left corner, in the box named Omschrijving. You will find all the Lian Li's they sell. You should be able to understand the names, everything is the same except black is zwart and silver is zilver.

Now, currently, I am thinking of either a CM590, a CM690 and a Antec P182. My budget is 130 euro's max.
I'm leaning towards the P182, even though it is more expensive. I could use some professional advice on this though. If you recommend a case, please also add if it would be recommended to add some extra casefans, maybe even a luxury item like one of those nice speed fan controllers.

Thanks in advance.
 
i love my cm690.....thinking of getting another. read a review on it. personally i fell in love with it the first time i saw it and HAD to get one. planning on getting 1 or 2 more as well.
 
How does it compare to the CM590? I heard the 590 is louder, since it has more holes in it for extra fans. Since I am not planning on filling it with as much fans as possible, should I just get 690 instead?
 
To get the best and most recommendations, you might want to move this thread and the PSU thread you have to Computers and gagets or general hardware. Thats where most people go for help on builds.

I still like the 7 or 6 series Lian-li cases for classic looks and ability to modify. It looks like your web site you linked has some good choices, just expensive.
