based on the info above what case would you suggest or recommend that PCSPECIALIST have in stock at the moment?!! Last time it's been suggested Corsair 550D , I checked the reviews adn it was very nice case but here they do not have it in stock plus it does not accept media card reader which is a MUST for me as most of my media comes with an SD card....

Primary concerns are EXTREME QUIET, DUST PROOF, ACCEPTS MEDIA CARD READER AND NOT HEAVY...

thank in advance.

hey dude,

whats the spec for by the way? I'd ahve gone for an IVY bridge cpu, instead of socket 2011. but that depends on ya uses.

what kinda cases do you like the look of? The cm690 II would be a good choice I think, you can read about it here.

Also no case is completely dust proof. You could always pick up a few dust filters once ya get it, if ya do, post before buying as some are really good and some are naf.

you can always "choose your own case option", buy a 550D and have it shipped to pcs for the build.

Yes but still 550D does not accept media card reader..

The option above looks good .. Does anybody know anything about its noise level??

Cooler Master CMD690 II looks great.. Will the standard case fans be enough to cool down the system or shoul I consider buying optional fans or what other options are available there for my case?

well it depends what system you are installing, high end gaming? dual gpu?

you could always add a 120mm side fan, to provide airflow directly to your gpu. :)

It is not for high-end gaming nor for dual gpu.. The system will work at its highest only when rendering (After Effects, Premiere Pro, Maya, Photoshop 3D..

I want the system to be quiet (that is my primary concern) and stable when rendering (since it is an overclocked system)..

The cases I liked until now are:

http://www.coolermaster.co.uk/product.php?product_id=2584

http://www.coolermaster.co.uk/product.php?product_id=6777

Considering that fact that I MUST have a internal media card reader installed on one oh these cases, How can I verify that the case will accept that or not with PCS??... and which of the above would you recommend to purchase or something else completely?

thanks again..
