So I need a new case . Too lazy to find my own, but I'm looking for something that's fukken huge and has plenty of slots for hard drives and other things. (about 10+ slots at least)

I remember Nirach suggested this bastard of a case (monolith or something) but I lost the link :[

    Lian Li, Antec P190, Thermaltake TT Armour, erm... have a look around bit-tech.net. They seem to like big cases.

    Get a Lian Li. They do some really nice full-towers which hold more shit than you can think of.

    Yeah, I've gotta go with the Lian Li suggestion. Not only are their cases sexy as hell, but they're like the TARDIS inside too - fukkin' HYOOOGE. Failing that, the ThermalTake full towers are pretty nice, as are a few Antec and CoolerMaster options. Really just depends how much you wanna spend.

      God, have you seen the Armorsuit?!

      That thing makes the tardis look small inside.

      The best demo is the FASTRA thing. Found here. Four 9800's, and STILL space to chuck around.

    I could have suggested the Mozart TX. Which is able to consume several small children without moving.

    However. Lian Li forever.

    I'd say, get an A10B, a 343B, or an Armorsuit. All of which are massive inside.


    However, I bet you're looking for more HDD storage - The Armorsuit and the 343B will be best bets. The 343B has the capability to hold ~10 or more drives without breaking a sweat. Armorsuit is good - But not as HDD capable as the 343B.

      Yeah - I got two watercooling loops in my Armor.

      Nice case, if a bit heavy.

    Hey, you know what I'd buy if I was rich and wanted a PC case that looked like the monolith from 2001? That Zalman FX-ZE1. If only there was a way to remove all that fugly Fatal1ty branding, but alas, it's laser inscribed for your eternal shame.

    I'm not a Geek, I'm a Computerist.

    hmm... I must admit, out of all the case's I've had, the worst was a Gateway Slimline case.. It only took half height cards and hard space for.. 3 or 4 hdd's.

    As for something I'd recommend, i can't really, but I've heard thermaltake are awesome — my current is a Gigabyte or something.. room enough for 4 cards, 6 drive bays.. it's fairly decent, and not too much cable clutter.
