XPerties Posted August 18, 2003 Posted August 18, 2003 Im torn between 2 makers and 2 colors.Thermaltake Xaser III Blue or Blackand the other model I have been looking at is these:X-SuperAlien Turbo Case ...also same colors as above. Blue or black.Now these are the things that I keep bouncing back and forth with.They both have nice features but the X-SuperAlien comes with a 500 w power supply which I need a new one anyways. And it rates good and is see through/modded.For the Thermaltake to come with a PS I found one for $180.00 (not including shipping), but on Thermaltake I like the flow of air, and the fact it has the built in CPU temp and fan control in the top bay. What do you guys think?
crowman Posted August 18, 2003 Posted August 18, 2003 Id go for the X-SuperAlien Turbo Case as this has a lot of good things going for it And the thought of the 500w PSU is good

XPerties Posted August 18, 2003 Author Posted August 18, 2003 And colors?I like the black but the blue is so pretty!
DaveXP Posted August 18, 2003 Posted August 18, 2003 Very nice cases there might get one of them my self. :excited:
crowman Posted August 18, 2003 Posted August 18, 2003 That's the case I ordered today. How much did this one set you back??
Tinker Posted August 18, 2003 Posted August 18, 2003 It appears to me from the images that either brand has turned the HDD cages sideways. Would this not inhibit airflow across the HDDs?If I were to choose I would get the Thermaltake Xaser III in Blue....Good luck with your selection XPerties and sure you will let us know..

Doggie Posted August 18, 2003 Posted August 18, 2003 personally i'd suggest the Thermaltake Xaser III (Color Blue). A nice look box

No not at all. Actualy same air flow only thing is now you can swap drives faster with the HD cages turned sideways.

Drewdatrip Posted August 19, 2003 Posted August 19, 2003 I personally like the Xaser 3 Blue. It comes with 7 fans, a fan bus and tooles slide rails. The case is well though out and very roomy.Id go with Thermaltakes! |Drew|
zipp51 Posted August 19, 2003 Posted August 19, 2003 I'm with Doggie and Drewatrip with the Xaser 3 Blue. The seven fans may or may not be noisey.My Lian Li has 5 and is actually pretty quiet coupled with a Zalman flower cpu cooler.
