    Re: new cabinet

    NZXT Tempest EVO ~ 6000/- much more robust than the Phantom [no piano plastic surface, so no dust / finger-prints and also no scratch affinity, comes in a matte black finish all around for the understated appeal], pre-packaged with 6 fans [2 x 140mm (front), 4 x 120mm (one blue LED for ambiance) with dust filters added], overall one of the best mid-towers in the market as of now in India, for further reads on the same --

    Also Corsair has released a decently priced (~99$) mid-tower called the Corsair Carbide 400, here is a look at that as well --

    the front comes with 2 x USB 3.0 headers so you are covered for the future. As usualit comes with the Corsair peace of mind and amazing build to boot.



    From the Cooler Master stables watch for the Storm Enforcer ~ 4500/-, a decent cabinet for its price --

    If you are hunting mid-towers[which stand out] get the strikingly different Cooler Master Storm Sniper --

    Re: new cabinet

    I would advice you to buy Corsair Carbide R400 too which Alpha17 suggested and i think it would hit indian shores pretty soon... I would go as far as to say that its better than NZXT Tempest Evo / Phantom and if it will launch in india for 5k it would just become a killer of all cabinets which comes under 6k range...

    Re: new cabinet

    ^^ Sire, get the NZXT Tempest EVO and be done with it, don't need to add fans [they all come pre-packaged] + dust-filters, Nice matte black powder paint finish [unlike the Phantoms piano plastic], overall a cheaper cabinet [~6000/-] which brings with it everything a winner needs at a price which is not atrocious to the masses



    OR as Hades Sir said the Corsair Carbide 400R is also a promising piece ~ 5500/- price tag, for more details refer to Post #8 by me carries all the details you might need on some of the good cabinets between a price tag of ~ 4500/- too 8500/- [NZXT Phantom is not on my list and neither the Cooler Master 690II Advanced].
