i like cases like this, but i have an issue. these usually ppl put on table top? my table top quite a squeeze, i have a a3 canon printer, so the only place available is next to my window, which is full blown afternoon sun very very hot. other option is on the floor, but my dog sleeps there too, so dog fur will enter the case right?

can u pls tell me what would be the output capability of this setup?

 

[royfrosty]

can u pls tell me what would be the output capability of this setup?

DVI Output 2 (Dual-link DVI-Ix1, Dual-link DVI-Dx1)
HDMI-Output 1 (version 1.4a)
DisplayPort 1 (version 1.2)

It can output total of 3 monitors.

However if you wanna game on 2 screens then not possible.

On 1 screen 1080p is enough.

 

[foosdoll]

ok, 2gb ram is enough?

2gb vram is enough if you do not game on 2 monitors.

What kind of video renderings are you doing? Is it a daily task?

how much is this case in sg?

About $240 Might be slightly cheaper.

TBH this is not worth the price. Could get the Corsair 750D.

 

[foosdoll]

not daily, maybe once a month about 2 hour video

Then just go for the rig i recommend. Although if you are really serious/daily using it for video rendering then you would need to go for an i7 and 16gb ram.
