i have a 900, its pretty roomy and cool. the fans aren't that loud either, but other people say that the wire management sucks. for me its not a problem, you should probably get it.

@ UltimateDestiny
Is the computer you're using a name brand one? Like Dell, Gateway, etc? If it is, and it's got the original motherboard in it, you should be able to find out what kind of form factor the motherboard is by searching online. Usually just entering the brand and model number and looking for detailed specifications will work. If you don't want to do that yourself, feel free to post the information here and I'll look it up for you

Its all sorted out now
I fucked up my mobo when attaching it to my new antec 300 so i had to buy a new one
But now everything works and stuff so this topic may be locked now
Thanks for all your help |
Glad to hear everything has worked out, though I'm sure fucking up your motherboard probably wasn't on your list of things to do

Since the case is large, you won't have the same space issue you are currently having, which means your PSU will not interfere with your GPU.
The Antec 900 has like fucking 9 slots, you can put your DVD/CD drive in any of them. |
I didnt mean that
Ill show it on a pic |
The Antec 900 will not fit those long ass card like the 9800GX2 or the HD 4870 X2.
IF you want to fit those long cards with room for your hands to work with you will need to get a case that supports E-ATX.

| The gpu is blowing onto it self, and if it's a dual slot cooler, it's going to exhaust out the back. The PSU works the same way. It's not going to pull hot ass air from itself into the case.

The 300 was probably a good choice, it's what I was going to recommend. How do you like the case? I've been considering it for my next build.
@ those suggesting 3 120mm fans isn't enough
One 120mm fan is plenty for almost any system. If you have a proper airflow setup, you don't need a million fans.
@ those suggesting ricer cases and blue LED's and Antec 900's
A computer case is to hold the parts of your computer. It doesn't need windows or flashing lights, we aren't 3 here. It's a fucking computer, it doesn't need to look tricked out.

I don't think 900 looks that cool and its not flashy.
Me myself I got a system with 2x 8800GT and E4500 2.2gHz (@3.2) with
an sonata III, only 2 fans, one in the front and one in the back (120mm).
I get max temp for cpu at 68, and im using the original cooler for the cpu.
