ey, im looking for a new case and wondering if any 1 can recommend a tower for me. Bassically, it needs to be big (fit 4870X2 in) and cheap. i dont mind cutting holes in it to put more fans in but i will be OCing later.
 
i just got a rocketfish full tower case and i love it. it's made be lian-li, so it's very well made. enough room for the bggest video cards (the reason i got it). there's no windows or fancy lights though. i'm not really into that, but you can put a window kit if you want, and any lights and fans you wish. the price is unbeatable for what you get, aluminum and huge size. i highly recommend this case. here's a link of a picture of someone's to show you the size of this thing http://www.ocforums.com/showthread.php?t=550341
as you can see, more than enough room for whatever you want to put in this thing. can be found online if you look around (amazon, ebay, etc.)
 
I doubt the Antec 900 would fit the 4870X2 and if it does, it's going to be very cramped, i would suggest the antec 1200 instead. OMEGA got one with a 4870X2 and says it fits pretty well in it.

The 4870 x2 actually would fit inside an Antec 900. The OP says he want's it cheap, but with a card like that I wouldn't mess around get a good case. Either the Antec 900 or 1200.
 
i just had a look at a CM690, and they look pretty good. their pretty much the same size as the Antec 900 but the CM690 looks like it might have a little better cooling with room for 8 fans(7 120mm or larger) over the 5 120mm's in the 900. i really like the lian-li, its deffinatly got the size going for it but do u reckon it will have enough air flow? i cant find much info or any prices for them here in melbourne either.
