Also, what is the difference between the fog and non-fog colours, does that mean the glass door is frosted?

Thanks,

Mr. Style (Pace )

There was a review of it at Bit Tech but they've redone the site and the reviews section isn't back up yet. The only other review I've seen is here :-

With regards to the older models I'm using an ATC- 201, looks great, very well made, reduced my system temps by about 4-5° C, a tad noisy though.

Pace,

I've got a 200 and a 201, both are nicely put together and beautifully finished, but they are a little noisy with 4 fans each.

If I were to build a new machine, I would always look at the CoolerMaster Cases first.

Got both of mine from www.scan.co.uk look out for them in the "Today Only" section, but be aware that their prices don't include power supplies.

Ok, I've been slapped about by everyone over the price of these cases.

Edit to question (no replies will force me to start a case thread )
What case do you use, and why?

Generic 3 Bay Tower.

12 Inch Hole and Fan Put into the top.

The only thing I don't like about the case is the power supply sits vertically above the processor.

Other than that. Its not too bad for something no-name.

I'm using a GlobalWin 802.
My case was pre-modified to take 6 extra 80mm case fans (I replaced all the YS-Tech fans with Evercool's to greatly reduce the noise yet not noticeably increase heat).

Reasons - Nice build quality, plenty of room internally for all my devices, the backplate and end risers totally slide out so you can build the PC (Including all your cards) outside of the case before sliding it in.

I like the aluminium cases, but just too expensive for me (especially after my last hardware upgrades).

Nice, cheap and sexy(ish)

I am looking for a replacement.
Do those aluminium cases make a difference to the ambient temp?

I use Chieftec. The one I use today is the TX-103. The Dragon models are nice aswell.

The cases are really, really good at an affordable price. Quality is top notch.

I've already said but actually got it wrong it's a Coolermaster ATC-200 I've got not a 201, Doh!

Just a little thought about those USB ports on the ATC-201, does the standard breakout thing work on these?

I have an Abit SA6R with a USB header on the board, and it also has the cable to link the header to a backing place providing 2 USB ports - do I just remove the plate and add it to the front of the ATC case? Or does the case come with its own (possibly custom) cable?

The case is sitting in my Scan shopping cart right now (the 201 though, not the 210 which I've decided to decide against ), with a brand new Enermax 430W power supply sitting behind me waiting to stick it's juicy teeth into a sweet case...

Christmas? For me maybe!

Sweet case now ordered. F*ck Christmas it seems
