Hello and good morning all.

Just wanted to start this thread to see what people think of each case and which they would go for.

Im looking for people to state actual facts about each case to compare them to every detail.

Any views and expressions are welcome.

The Cosmos is the better case but you are paying a lot for the fact that it's CM's flagship case. The Stacker 810 will do all of the practical things that the Cosmos can do and at a price that is a lot more sensible.

cosmos S looks good and the huge side fan should help with cooling but over £60 more than the stacker! so the 810 for me i think

Can i just have a PSU at the bottom of the stacker or does it have to be at the top?

Also does anyone have any tech details comparing the two cases?

You can have the PSU at the bottom of any case, only problem is all your drives will be upside down too...

What do you think of the stacker and cosmos anyway.

You may have noticed im looking for a big case prefferably with the PSU at the bottom

If that is so, you really need to look at what Lian Li has to offer. The Lian Li V1000+ springs to mind immediately for example.

My bad. Although it probably has more than enough space. Consider, Lian Li A10, A70, G70, P80

Have aria stopped selling the stacker ? cos all i can see on there now is the stupid looking new one

Ive also been looking at the antec 1200 but it doesnt look very big compared to the stacker and the cosmos s
