Searching for a new case

I'm planning to build a new computer.  I've got everything picked out except the case.  I didn't expect the case to be the most difficult thing to choose.
I'm looking at cases that support the XL-ATX mother board size (345mm x 264mm).  Choices seem somewhat limited.
Also I'm planning on keeping the graphics cards on air and CPU on a pre-made water cooler.  I'd like to have room for the CPU radiator at the top of the case.  According to the specifications, the radiator is 29mm thick (almost 1 5/32").
I'm not as concerned about money as I am about good function of the case.  I know no design will be perfect.
Anyone have a suggestion?

Good day sir 
Well, i would say its all upto our own personal preference .. what i like maybe something you dont like .. but alas we shall try 
I currently have this case .. http://www.aerocool.us/strikex/strikex_st_black.html .. Not the prettiest .. but also, not the ugliest .. Its got huge amounts of space inside with loads of hard drive bays .. Cool features i enjoy about it, fan controls at the top, hot-swap bay at the top makes it easy and quick to plug in an HDD and copy .. also has USB 3.0 and 2.0 at the top. I to have a pre-made watercooler ( H100 ) which fits at the top of the case with room to spare ( you could in the future upgrade to a custom waterloop with a bigger radiator, and there is still plenty of space for the reservoir and pump etc if you did upgrade to a custom loop ) 
You can see here these are full sized boards and there is still a butt load more space around for larger boards or added whatever ! https://fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/154840_10200228081761247_1088706512_n.jpg
Pros:
1. Huge amounts of space inside
2. Loads of options for cooling ( can hold loads of fans )
3. Future proof for custom water loops
Cons:
1. Its a pretty huge case, if you are like me and go out to friends to lan etc, its not very convenient to carry/move etc.
This is just one option, and my own opinion  hope you do find a case soon though :D

    You have already seen that you cannot load the new iTunes into your 10.5.8, so as Neil says, you need Snow Leopard (current cost £14).    And you'll probably need to update the disc you buy via the combo update, though that is free.
    As far as the new iTunes is concerned, there's been a certain amount of grumbling so you may want to study the forums before you update.   The main problem has been with album artwork which does not transfer easily.

  • How to search for upper/lower case using string using JAVA!!!?

    -I am trying to write a program that will examine each letter in the string and count how many time the upper-case letter 'E' appears, and how many times the lower-case letter 'e' appears.
    -I also have to use a JOptionPane.showMessageDialog() to tell the user how many upper and lower case e's were in the string.
    -This will be repeated until the user types the word "Stop". 
    please help if you can
    what i have so far:
    [code]
    public class Project0 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
      String[] uppercase = {'E'};
      String[] lowercase = {'e'};
      String isOrIsNot, inputWord;
      while (true) {
       // This line asks the user for input by popping out a single window
       // with text input
       inputWord = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "Please enter a sentence");
       if ( inputWord.equals("stop") )
        System.exit(0);
       // if the inputWord is contained within uppercase or
       // lowercase return true
       if (wordIsThere(inputWord, lowercase))
        isOrIsNot = "Number of lower case e's: ";
       if (wordIsThere(inputword, uppercase))
         isOrIsNot = "number of upper case e's: ";
       // Output to a JOptionPane window whether the word is on the list or not
       JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "The word " + inputWord + " " + isOrIsNot + " on the list.");
    } //main
    public static boolean wordIsThere(String findMe, String[] theList) {
      for (int i=0; i<theList.length; ++i) {
       if (findMe.equals(theList[i])) return true;
      return false;
    } // wordIsThere
    } // class Lab4Program1

  • HT4623 I do not like the new iOS 7 operating system on my iPad.  I do not like the Safari works, I do not see a way to enter or search for a new web site.  Is there a way that I can go back to the older operating system?

    I do not like the new iOS 7 system on both my iPad 2 and iPhone 4S.   I can not like the way Safari works, I can not see a way to enter name to search for new web sites.  Is there a way I can go back to the old iOS 6.1.5 operating system on my devices?  Thank you.

    I can not see a way to enter name to search for new web sites
    Put your search terms in the combined URL and search bar at the top of the browser (exactly the same as you do in most modern desktop browsers such as Chrome, Safari, Explorer). There is no separate search box, just use the box where you enter web addresses.
    And no, you cannot downgrade.

  • Searching for my new telephone

    Hello.
    I'm sorry for my english. I'm looking for a new telephone, maybe will be 9360.
    I need a phone with a good reception and with an address book that synchronizes all outlook fields including categories.
    I have several contacts with 2-3 email, 2-3 cellular numbers, office address and phone, home address and phone number etc....,  and I like to have all the fields on the phone.
    I hope that there is the possibility to have different ringtones for each category.
    I read that the battery has a short life, but I don't use internet and mail: this improves the duration?
    thanks for the replies

    My search engines do not work. I can access all my bookmarked items but I cannot perform any new searches. This problem has been happening since this morning. I followed all the troubleshooting steps that I could find and nothing has worked.

    Just to make sure, did you check the ring/silent button on the side of the phone? If it is set to "mute" you can still hear your selected ringtone in settings/sound, for example.

  • Firefox start page comes up, but it will not let me search for any new information

    Yesterday FF crashed and I ssent you acrash messaage. Todaay,

    Thank you for submitting a crash report. That data is used to watch for trends and prioritize fixes, but here on the forum we can't access your report without a crash report ID. The last section of this article describes how to find that: [[Firefox crashes]].
    Regarding the start page, are all of the different boxes broken?
    * search box in the page
    * address bar
    * search bar on the right end of the main toolbar
    In case one of your extensions is involved, could you test the page in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
    After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
    Any difference?

    Hi,
    Not sure if I get it, but you can look for characters using the ascii and chr functions.
    You can change them using replace:
    A new line:
    SQL> select ascii('
      2  ') from dual;
    ASCII('')
            10(Just press enter between the quotes)
    Example how to replace it with a space:
    SQL> with t as ( -- generating test string:
      2  select 'this string has
      3  a new line' str from dual
      4  )
      5  --
      6  -- actual query:
      7  --
      8  select str
      9  ,      replace(str, chr(10), chr(32))
    10  from   t;
    STR                        REPLACE(STR,CHR(10),CHR(32
    this string has            this string has a new line
    a new lineIf that isn't clear of when I'm missing the point then please post some narrowes down examples of what you get now and your desired output.

  • Search for subject in Mail is case sensitive

    I'm hoping this is the right place to ask questions about Apple Mail as the organisation of this forum is mind baffling.
    Am I right in thinking that a search on the subject in Apple Mail is case sensitive. If so, how do I change this behaviour ?

    Hi and welcome to Apple Discussions.
    I agree it's silly that there doesn't appear to be a separate topic heading for questions about Mail. I think perhaps they want you to post under the version of the system software you're using. But what do I know?
    As far as I can see, subject searches in Mail (at least under Yosemite) are not case sensitive. I searched for "your" (all lower case) in the subject and found, among others:
    Searching for "Your" (upper case "Y") finds exactly the same messages.
    Hope this helps,
    H
    Strange this, because that's what I thought, having used Apple Mail for years. Tried it again and you are right, it is not case sensitive, but earlier today I did a search that definitely returned a different set of results when I changed the word "hours" to "Hours". I wonder if somehow I inadvertently triggered a case sensitive option.

  • Is there a way to search for new events in ical

    i am after a way to search for all new events within a certain parameter in ical....so you can see which events have dropped into your calendar recently...not sure if this is an ical feature or automator. thanks. Simon

    What Anjaneai also means to say is that Adobe has neglected to provide a Usage button for variables as they have for Advanced Actions and Library objects so that you can see exactly where they are used.  This is a BIG problem when you have a lot of variables and AAs to search through.
    By all means log an enhancement request and add your voice asking for this VERY necessary feature.

  • When searching for an image in Finder on iMac, I found hundreds of images of printers !! All sorts of printer images which I certainly haven't loaded on.I went to Finder, File, Find and Image and there they are, hundreds,if not low thousands of them.

    I was searching for an image on my Imac and when I went to Finder,File,Find and then Image, I found hundreds if not early thousand images of printers ! Amazing in one way but I didn't put them on my machine and don't really want them there.Did they come pre-loaded? Can I delete them safely? Thanks

    Almost certainly, no absolutely not once you start deleting stuff like this that you think is not needed, eventually you'll trash something essential and cause yourself a lot of heartache.
    There are numerous files classed as images, some will be temporary files in browser caches, others system files, others your "real" images, others files which are not really images but appear to be.
    The amount of space of what I presume are essentially icons of printers will will be minimal, lets say these images are  5k in size (I guess they are much smaller?) and there are 1,000 of them, thats only 5Mb. No doubt your disk has multiple gigabytes free, eg thousands of times as much free as you'd save by deleting all of them. So you might gain back an extra 0.0001% disk space*. NOt worth the time, let alone the risk, plus then you'll get into a mindset "hmm, I dont think I can possibly need this 23byte file either I'll delete that as well etc, and then "problem......". 
    Where are the images stored? It may be that at some time you were searching for a new printer and these images are from that exercise (though I doubt you looked at thousands?) in which case they are in your browser cache and you can always delete that through the browser, but that space will be overwritten by other images anyway.
    "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" is a motto to work by with computers.
    *( or, if you really do need the (say) 5MB of disk space back because you are running out, this would only be a very temporary solution and that wont have done you any good)

  • Looking for a new laptop, need help!?!

    I am searching for a new laptop to use in college and i am planning to spend $900 to $1000 on it and would like a laptop that is not too big (like equal to or under 16".) I would like at least 500GB hard drive and processor that is good but not to strong that I have no battery life. I was thinking i5 processor.  I would like it to have enough battery to be able to use through good chunk of day (like 6hr rated or so.)  It needs to be somewhat durable as I know college will take its toll on the computer.  It would be great addition to have a good video card.  I don't know if there is anything out there like this but hope there is.  Please post suggestions or new ideas about what i would need for college.  Thank you for any help!
    Luke

    Hi Lukedmann,
    Thank you for considering Best Buy for the purchase of your next laptop. As we start off the Back to School season you should start seeing the introduction of quite a few new models,  and some that should be able to meet your need. With the way technology advances day to day, this shouldn't be impossible to maintain.
    Personally, taking into account any and all biases I have and stuff, theres 4 models i'd point out to you inside my store. Understanding that these are not your only options, and that I think that the aethetic design of the computer (how nice you think it looks) should definitely play a role, i'm sure any of these should be able to meet the demands you specified.
    3 Models to Compare
    Overall these are pretty close to your price limit, and I chose these assuming you wish to spend 900-1000 on the laptop and already counted in taxes, accessories, softwares etc. Just to let you know I discounted some models to give you the higher quality, however some models which come out to cost less would still meet your specified criteria. Let us know if you have any questions.
    Sincerely,
    Agent Lamar

  • Upgrade Fee?  Is it time for a new provider?

    The new upgrade fee is a bit ridiculous. Verizon is by far the most expensive provider available.
    Is it time to start searching for a new provider?

    Hmmmm, sounds like a challenge.  I live in a metro area so I know there are many providers to choose from.  I have many friends who get excellent service from smaller providers.  Last time I checked it's not 2003 and mobile phone tower usage is leased to providers not owned.  There are probably plenty of service providers who are champing-at-the-bit to sign up ex-Verizon customers.  I will do some research and let you guys know what I find.
    Just to note, part of the reason cell phone makers charge so much for their phones is because of subsidies.  Do you really think people would switch to next crapple iphone 7 if they actually had to pay $800 bucks for it?  Apple, samsung, Nokia, ect. would have to drop their prices in order to maintain profit if service providers didn't use the phones to entice people to sign up for their price gouging scheme.  Lucky for us we live in a free market so we can vote with our pocket book.  I assume you probably work for Verizon so you may not be switching, but if enough people change their provider Verizon will start to feel the affect.  Remember when Cingular used to exist?
