Clash of the Titans - TT Tai Chi vs. CM Stacker 830

[zachig]

There are extremes to everything in life, and products are certainly not an exception - especially technology products. Earlier, we looked at one of the ends of the extremes in computer cases with Dynapowers' super-affordable E68 in addition to two more moderately-priced cases in a price-point comparing shootout, but this time, we're going to examine two cases at the other end of the spectrum. Barring solutions such as Zalman's TNN-500A, which attempts to handle all cooling needs for a computer on its own in complete silence, the Tai Chi by Thermaltake and Stacker 830 that we'll be looking at here represent some of the very finest in case design - and have a price to match.

Both are pretty functional cases but I don't really like the new look of the stacker. I still love the look of the older one. I want one!

Yeah, me too :wink: . I would really like to get a new case for my system. I really liked the CM Centurion 530/532 and even more...the Gigabyte 3D Aurora Case.

They are all fine cases............. :wink: Just a little small for my water cooling hobby.............. :shock: I'll have to stick with my UFO for the time being.

I'm not really a fan of the CM Stacker :shock: shocking I know... just not attracted to its asthetics... sure it's highly functional and whatnot, but if it doesn't look good while doing it, what's the point? :P

I hadn't heard of the Tai Chi, but it looks more like a Server case, rather than a regular computer case... and the angled window on the Stacker isn't very pleasing to eye... but I suppose these cases are function over form, and both do an excellent job at that indeed :)
