I have been thinking about buying a new case
candidates are:
NZXT whisper
Fractal R3 XL

tell me why/whynot for the replacements
or tell my why I should stick with my Silverstone
thing is i know i would miss the TJ09
Sometimes i get bored and just want shiny new things for no apparent reason:D
 
If you anything like me you will ignore the given advice ;D

However, from personal expirence every NZXT case I've built with are no where near the quality of the TJ09. I'd splash out on a Lian Li personally. As for the Fractal, can't say I've actually looked into them.
 
The only Lian-li i like is the one with the mesh and the wheels....i don't think they do it any more.
both the full towers I listed are quite cheap in comparison to the temjin.

I'd second that. I don't know how they fare now, but I worked with the Tempest, whilst a bang/buck case, it wasn't high end stuff. You could basically cut your fingers with it. Anyways, the Phantom seems to depart from these anyways, so who knows?
 
Silverstone cases are really high quality, I will not swap them with anything else. Personal preference, though.
 
I guess i should stick with full aluminium.
I am intrigued by the fractal though, it looks pretty good and promises silence
maybe i could get adhesive acoustic foam for the silverstone, lian-li do packs for their cases
i could mod to fit, i may drop it in to the panel beaters for a coat of sorrento green (peugeot colour).
 
Silverstone TJ07 reporting in. Youve got a quality case already so don't give in!
 
Holy crap...just checked ebay and the etailers want about $60AUD shipped for the the lian-li full tower acoustic foam kits
 
keep your tj09 it's pretty sexy case
 
Tomorrow i will get quotes for sorrento green 2k for the TJ09
just need to check the colour code on my 205gti
will also go to clark rubber and price acoustic foam because screw lian-li
unfortunately this will likely cost me more than a new case to purchase but it will breath new life into my case.
 
Fractal makes damn good cases, I think its a matter of your personal taste. Personally I'd swap, but only because its a TJ09. a 07 on the other hand I'd keep.
 
Buy the Swiss case said the man from Switzerland.
i looked at the 7 when i bought the TJ09 i like the 9 more...many don't though
