Ok guys, I need to know which is the best case, at least the one you guys think, for these components:

INTEL Q9450
DFI LP UT P35 T2R Motherboard
EVGA 9800 GX2
Four (4) Western Digital Caviar SE16 WD3200AAKS HDD
ASUS 20X DVD±R DVD Burner

I had made up my mind on the COOLER MASTER cosmos S Full Tower, but at $250 a popup, I think that maybe there is a better case at this price range or even lower. Thanks for any help...
 
The Cosmos S is one of the best cases out there, but the Stacker 83x series is also very nice. Those would be my preferred cases, although it really just comes down to your personal preference.

Are you going with a stock heatsink/fan combo for your cpu?

I do suggest a Lian-Li case but thats just me. :D

What are the advantages of a Lian-Li over say a Cosmos S? I also looked into the Lian-Li but I find them so "plain" as far as aesthetics

Mostly aesthetics. I personally prefer the more modern-style design of Coolermaster's cases, as well as the tool-less features they incorporate which makes it very easy to work with them (Lian-Li cases don't have any tool-less features).
 
Lian-Li has great build quality. Most of the screws I've found I needed to take off for everyday things are tool less also. I prefer the simplicity over cases with 3 different colors and 8 Led fans personally. All depends on what your preferences are.
 
I'm kind of in the same boat as you and personally I'd wait for either of the two new Lian LI cases, the PC-A77 or the PC-A7010. They will hopefull be avaialble soon in the US.
 
Get a $47 rocketfish case from a local BB! They are LianLi cases! I bought 5, see my thread about the $20 Rocketfish window mod. Awesome full tower case and can't beat the price!

Lmao, get the case you like. this question is very opinionated

IMO the Centurion 590 is the best..
