I've probably dumped 8 hours into this problem and looking for a fresh perspective.

1. Must be tower
2. Must have door to cover drives ( i don't feel like stealthing)
3. Must be "moderately quiet".
4. Must support 3700+SD, 7800GTX, Sound Card, RAM-Drive PCI card when it comes out, and "ONE" SATA drive.
5. Must have window (I like seeing what I spent all my money on)
6. Cost ~$100 shiped if possible.
7. Prefer black..but silver will do.
8. Must have a clean look (I don't want something that looks like it came out of a marvel comic)

Ideas?

Edit: For Recommendations & Budget to $120 shipped.

Thermaltake Tsunami VA3000BWA Black Aluminum ATX Mid Tower Computer Case - Retail
 
the epitome of *splort*, in your situation, is a CoolerMaster ATC111 w/ a window....but good luck finding one. Sadly, the only case I can think of that has those in your price range is either a TT Tsunami, or some other antec clone if you're looking at aluminum. The Cav 3 listed below would be a good steel choice.

Are you including PSU into that cost, or are you ok with buying your PSU seperate?
 
cavalier 3, in black. Put a window on it if you really want. ~56 bucks with no powersupply.

I am very pleased with mine, especially for so cheap.
 
I just recently bought this one and i'm quite pleased with it.

I got mine from Fry's for $84. Here is Directron's link to it.

Cooler Master Centurion 530
 
Since you want a door .. I would say a Wavemaster. It's excellent. ;) Problem is it doesn't come at $100 I don't think.

Seperate PSU...got a $100 budget for that. When they raised hte price of the Antec (the one from the HOCP article) to a $115...I was pissed.
