c9I hate that I get what I pay for.
I bought this:
But I should have bought this:
The new case works just fine, and is better than the old one, but it's not quiet by any stretch of the imagination. Damnit. I specifically wanted a quiet case, but the cheap ass in me chose to believe that the case I chose was quiet and cheap. Parts of it are quiet, but the insane cooling power it has makes it noisy in other ways. The huge vent in the side lets lots of cool air in for the CPU, but it lets lots of whirring out. The shinier one is only $50 more expensive too. Oh well.
Someday I'll learn.
