Wich case for a sleeper build? was created by Poicly
Hi! I got 2 cases for a sleeper build but i cant decide wich one to choose.
White case: poorly painted, cheap, no place for cabble management, missing front i/o door, no space for cabble management (Windows XP era)
Antec case: durable, lots of space, little to no space for cabble management. No scratches. brandend. ( Windows XP/7 era)
Any suggestion is welcome!
(The other case to the left is not cappable with newer mobos without extreme modding)

Thanks! I think i will go for the antec one, but i really wanted to make my sleeper in a Apple 4g or powermac case 
i know someone and he said if he wants them out he will give them to me, i would also like a flat old case like the dell dimensionale restoration video you guys made! but i cant wait. So this will be temporaly!

At first, a branded case like HP or PB or Dell or something like this always makes a great case for a sleeper build.
The antec is for beginners, the other needs some experience how to hide the cables and optimising the airflow.
A desktop case would also be nice.
but if you can't wait any longer, then take the antec.

Nice that you even took care of the cables, looks WAY BETTER than "free swinging" ones.
