Scout is awesome

martins2309

have you had any previous experience with it? I'm getting it for a gaming rig that I'm building before college

well too late now I purchased the scout

ive got the scout. its great. and i know "handles" are not "cool" anymore, but mine has come in handy many times.
being painted on the inside is a nice extra, as is dust filters.
pretty quiet too.

only problem i have with it is a big long scratch across the side panel. the GF decided being drunk means she had to fall on top of it and scratch it up.

ive never seen/used a HADES though, so im biased..

EDIT: actually, i found the cable management to be pretty none existent, but maybe my PSU cables are really short. other than that, no complaints.

thanks for the info. I am getting a modular PSU so cable management wont be a big issue

OK Now Im looking at a Scout too.
Definately nicer than the Hades, but I have a bugbear with any cases that have doors on the front of them to get at your optical drives.

Anyway, Where did you guys order from, and how fast was the delivery ??

On another case related question, when did Mid-Towers start having their PSU's on the bottom ??
Does this present issue or restrict airflow when the case is on carpet? Id imagine that it would be more prone to sucking in dust if it is down low??

While the NZXT case is nice, the build quality is a little poor in places. The Scout, in my oppinion is much nicer looking and Coolermaster generally have a good reputation for a solid build quality.

To answer your questions 1: www.pixmania.ie for 74 and 20 for delivery( the cost remains the same no matter the amount of items so I suggest to buy multiple items at a time). 2: don't really know if it will depends on the richness of the carpet

What is happening to your website. I wanted to get the HAF 622 and now its gone. So I had to go with something else
