How does the Cm 690 compare to the antec 900
- Thread starter Scubie67

Okies, no answer I get the hint 
. I was thinking of getting the 900 for cooling but I wonder if all the light from the side panel would get to be an eyesore afterwhile as well as disturb my reptiles(they are nocturnal) that I keep in my computer room.The 7 fans that you can put on the cm690 sound really good as well as being a less lighted case.I guess I could put some cardboard on the side of the 900 to block the light,don't know how good that would be for cooling though.

Um theres a new case from coolermaster called the Centurion 590.
Like the 690, it fits one rear fan, 2 side fans, 2 top fans, and you can put 2 4 in 3 modules (one included) in front (like the antec)
I think it will be better as its cheaper (they say it will be) and I think has MUCH better cooling capabilities

Well here is a few posts below yours about the A900 vs the CM 830 stacker.

You can probably gather some information about the A900 and some of the stacker's pros and cons.

Centurion coming out in march. I dont know. As much as people rave about the Antec, i just get the feeling not to go for it. I have read reviews and there is alot of extra modding involved to make it manageable (cables) and i hate clear side winows (retain heat, and the internal lights will P me off)
