cheesekeso2004 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 Guys san ba nakakabili ng mga casings? Preferrably yung mga stylish finish at pedeng i mod? Karamihan kasi ng nacanvass ko, di q type design e or masikp yung loob. Any ideas kung san makakabili? Kung may pics na rin paki post. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Stylish? Thermaltake is good Spacious? Coolermaster Easy to mod? Any cheap ATX casing With your requirements above, I think it'll be best to go for full tower casings For Thermaltake, you can opt for the Kandalf or Armour, Shark is also decent For Coolermaster, there is only one that I can consider to be the most spacious of all and also provides excellent airflow, CM Stacker Its better if you can find the Stacker STC than Stacker 810, but anyway, both provides excellent airflow Lian Li is ok for modding, but what I hate about Lian Li is that no matter how you mod it, it'll still look like Lian Li. If you just really want to mod, look for generic cases modding is not cheap fyi, my mod for my CM Stacker (will post a pic soon ) costs around 1.5k, just to hide the cables and w/o Side panel mod. So that's 8.3k + 1.5k + 550 (for side panel) and you'll get one expensive casing that has a lower resale value than an unmodded one Although a friend of mine is also selling a modded chieftec dragon he's the one who bought my Kandalf and now he's selling his case Chieftec Dragon was a hot seller before since it's a full tower w/ lots of space Go to tipidpc.com, check the forum "Show me your rig", you'll see everyone with their rigs there This will give you an idea what casing is going to be best to suit your needs Quote Link to comment

marc.alan Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 last week i got a focus nemesis casing (will try to post pic next time) cost me 38XX.XX micro atx board lang and kakasya dito, mejo plain, pero its an alternative to shuttle XPCs and i saw one on a pc thread (tipid pc ata) na napa airbrush nya yung transparent panels lft and right sides plus top. also the casing comes with 350 watts PSU and a blue-LED case fan mejo mahirap lang nga makahanap ng better cooling solution for the processor kase masikip sa case, lalu na pag IDE ang HDD mo, get SATA drives if u plan to use this casing Quote Link to comment
cheesekeso2004 Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 How true... speaking of TPC... there's a guy there who mods casings for a living (forgot his handle tho ) I saw one of his mods and think of it this way... ala Fast and the Furious casing :thumbsupsmiley: ... The primary reason why modded casings are cheaper than the 'virgin' ones is that some of them actually have a different thing in mind when modding casings so go figure... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> There are 3 peeps that I know of who can mod in TPC Cham_e_lyon ---> Just at the back of SM North Tantric ---> Near Sta. Ana Race Track (ata, forgot e )Jeda ---> Near Nepa-Q Mart Each of them has a their own specialties Cham_e_lyon ---> Basically the all-around guy in modding, he's the best (or should I say the most popular) modder in TPC. I already had him mod several of my cases My only fret about this guy is that sometimes, there are TONS of people having their cases mod at his place, so sometimes, it'll take 1 week for your case to be done (or started, but i think it only happened to me twice ) Tantric ---> His specialty is wire management, and when you say wire management, you'll really say "where's the wires?" Seriously, he was the one who modded my Lian Li (He has a website, check for the purple/glossy Lian Li, that's mine ). I stopped going to his place cuz it's just too far from my place Jeda ---> Specialty? Special projects and watercooling He can make killer side panels (Side panels with design, like a dragon or flame etc), whole case mods (He made a Biostar 6100 fit in a very small casing LOL ), and DIY Watercooling kits (Internal/External) I only asked him to make me 1 mod, and damn, I should say Im very happy with it We're already talking about an 8" LCD Widescreen at the side panel mod (If I can find a decent LCD) He's the one who modded my CM stacker 3 days only (should've been 2 days, postponed for a day because of the MMDA and the road widening project) Anyway, if you really plan to mod the whole case, get a generic case (Nemesis is ok, my only problem is that it's quite hot and needs modding if you plan to put in big hsf's ) and mod it, My Lian Li costed my more than 2k or 3k I think But if you're planning to make a simple mod, you can get those expensive cases Oh yeah, those mods *side panel, blowhole etc* doesn't include any fans, fan grill, ccfl, cables etc, so it'll be another expense for you Quote Link to comment

kenji_1989 Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 At a budget of 40K maybe this will be for all around use. A high end gaming PC will not cost 40K only I think am I right? Quote Link to comment
MODERATOR bonito99 Posted July 6, 2006 MODERATOR Share Posted July 6, 2006 had mine at 18k. for gaming and surfing. of course, without a brand new monitor, but dvd writer. Had my friend buy the parts (bnew) so I can"t recall the brands. All I can remember is Intel... Quote Link to comment
