Conclusion - New Case Required

evenin guys.


i'm posting this

a) because i'm being a bit lazy tonight

&

b) see a


right at the moment i have a TT armor j case. was alright to begin with. but now as i've changed things about and added stuff, the temps have started to increase a bit (hence the side is off most the time) and it's pain in the ass to keep clean as it's become a dust magnet and is getting cramped - so a new case is in order.

budget is a toughie - ideally £100 or less, although depending on time of year i may be able to strech it a bit further.

bigger the better, would like a full tower for the space and aero's but budget might not make it. so as much internal space as possible would be good to allow good airflow.

would like psu bottom mounted as this would allow space for a rad in the top - for future cooling.

a cpu backplate cutout would be nice so o didn't have to keep taking the damn thing to bits when i want to change the hsf and holes for cable management - not essential as i could punch these out at work in 5 mins. although holes for w/c would be desirable.

tool less is good for the lazy of us (me included ) although not essential.


i know this may seem like a tall order - but may be able to compromise in areas (like cable cutouts). so welcome the suggestions.
