Moved my system out of my FT03-T into a Fractal Design Define Mini that I purchased from MicroCenter locally where I live, also upgraded the motherboard for a future upgrade and SLi support as my other board only supported CrossFire and I personally prefer nVidia.
I also was able to stuff two Antec 620's in this awesome case using a bracket made by Dwood on oc.net I was able to put one on my GTX 570 that was heating my home during these warm summer days in MN.
While running BF3 on Ultra I'm at these temps:
GTX 570 ~55C
2600k ~55C
With all the fans running at max I can barely hear anything through the cases sound deadening material!
Had to use slim fans to fit both coolers at top back corner of the case, but they cool very nice, buying two more to get push pull on both cpu and gpu in the coming weeks.
Cable management was a little tough behind the motherboard tray but nothing I havent dealt with before
