I'm thinking of building a new computer (this will be my first time) but I have a bit of a problem choosing a case. I will have it in my bedroom so it would be good if the case got good sound dampening quality. For this the p183 seems to be good at but I'm thinking of buying a 5850/5870 graphic card and might go crossfire in the future. So space might be an issue with this case. Is there any other cases out there like p183 but with more room and not too expensive?
 
Just remove the upper hard drive bay and you can fit the HD5870 easily.
 
I find the look of p193 a bit clumsy, with the side panel fan sticking out like that. But if I can't anything else I will probably get it.

If removing the upper hard drive cage of the p183, can I fit two 5870 into it?

Probably, but just barely. It was tough to shoe-horn two X1950Pro's into the P182 back when I had one of those.
 
I am going to try the Cooler Master Storm Sniper. It has alot of ventialtion, but I have read that it is very quiet with the large fans on low.

Better to hope that graphics card's fan never spins up.
Thousand and one holes cheesegraters are acoustically big nothing. (simulate that by taking sides off from your case)
