Hi guys,
I'm about to order the below desktop but unsure whether to go with the Haf x or Obsidian 650d case, just wondering if any of you have either case and what you think of them. I do like the ability to hot swap drives on the top of the 650d though. I want to keep things as cool as possible but I don't think there is much in it between these two ventilation wise. I think I'm settled on everything else but open to any suggestions.
I have 3 HDD waiting here to go in so thats why I only have the 1 drive in there.
Cheers
