Default Cases

1) Thermaltake VD4000BWS LCS Kandalf Full Tower - Black (CA-045-TT)

2)Thermaltake VE2000BWS Armour LCS Super Tower - Black (CA-044-TT)


I am thinking of buying a nice new case, which one should I get. Having said that, I have never assembled a computer before, always had the plan of doing it. Decided to do it now, so please recommend which case to go for and what are the things I should watch out when moving my hardwares from the old case to the new case.

Lol, Armours cool. But I prefer the front look of Kandalf tho. Maybe you would like to tell me why you prefer Armour?

The only real difference between the two are the looks and the price. I own the armour. Best case I've ever owned. The bezels are removable and have black charcoal filters in them to help with dust. I have owned it since February and haven't built up any noticable dust in the case (just vacuum the front occasionally)...

Yeah, when I first told the Wife about the armour, the gandalf wasn't on the site I use (zipzoomfly), so when I finally talked her into it, then I saw the Gandalf, but she just wouldn't pony up the xtra money. Being a stay-at-home Dad, who was I to argue

If money isn't an issue, check out the Thermaltake Mozart, now that is a case. You could pitch a tent in that monster!!!
