cheap materials used i would say, maybe thats why they are so cheap...

i made the mistake of using a crap case when i built mine, some cheap plasticy crap, just looks nice in the picture

im gna have to change my case soon just pisses me off
those cases look of similar build and material to mine, i wouldnt suggest buying them

my case, not very helpful for noise as its VERY basic, no noise reduction taken into care

feels tacky, front panel is too plasticky i liek my metal mesh side panel i might take that off the chassis if i ever upgrade my case :P

Because the're from no name brands who produce crappy quality cases lol. Enermax aint so bad, but I wouldn't get that case. I wouldn't get anything less than a centurion 5, that case is awesome.

I found something out about the case with the window... its only available in the US which is abit gay :/ I'm going to try to find a US site but Id have no idea how much it would cost to get it to the UK, anyone else have an idea? I really want the one with a window :P


E-mail I sent komplett :P

Hi,

I want to purchase a new computer case, I like this one: Cooler Master Centurion 5 Black/Silver (Without PSU) - http://www.komplett.co.uk/k/ki.asp?sku=311365&cks=PRL

There is another version of the case, Cooler Master Centurion 5 (CAC-T05-WWA) which has a side window and in my opinion it looks much better and I would really like this case. I was wondering if you are ever going to have any available or if you could sell me one.

Thanks very much.

You don't need a new motherboard, just use the one I linked to before.

I would recommend getting the Opteron 165 s939 instead, that is, if you can find it in stock anywhere. Dual core is a great choice, actually sold my FX-57 for DC last week -.- Still miss it sorta.

If it supports A64 s939 then it pretty much supports X2.

On the other hand does it support any s939 opteron? No. Does any s939 motherboard support a s939 opteron? No. Will it work? Yes, absolutely.

Don't ask me why AMD released a CPU and mobo manufactuers won't officially support it lol.
