What are some good companies for cases. Maybe some good models to? Nothing that costs to much money. Right now I'm stuck with a stupid NZXT Nemesis, not one of my best buys lol. I can't F@#$ING stand this case any more. Thanks.
 
I'm pretty hooked on Lian Li, and they have great cases starting around $90 for the PC61 all the way to just over $300 with their high end server cases.
 
I believe the unanimous decision will be Lian Li, however I'm on my first case (Thermaltake Tsunami) and love it.
 
I have always liked Antec. I currently have 3 older Antec Mid towers, a newer Sonota style case, and I'm working on a mod of a Titan 550 server case.
 
Dont waste your time on the pc-61, go with the pc-65 with the 120mm front fan.
 
SIlverstone and Lian li hands down. Old Cooler Master stuff is also good, but impossible to find...
 
I dont reccomend going Silverstone as it is horrible overpriced even compared to LL and is horrible overkill.
 
I havn't had the chance to get a lan li, but I did love the Thermaltake Tsunami case i got for my bother's computer. I'd never pay that much for a case, but I liked it. I see where the extra money goes...
 
All the Pc-65 i can find still have the double 80 mm. KingPing I am a little interested, but still does any one know if that back plated will fit 2 80mm fans?

The PC-65 Plus series uses 120mm cooling.

If you went with the non-plus version though, another 80mm fan does indeed fit quite nicely...

goin for silverstone tj-07 soon i think.

too bad the LL are inverted... otherwise id get the 1200
 
The Antec Sonata, Centurion 5, P150, P180(P180B), CM Stacker....those are some of my ideas. I haven't seen how the new Antec NSK or Solo are.

I second the Antec P180. That's going to be my next case. Just be sure your PSU has long cables. It might help if you could be a little more specific with your price range. Some of the cases already recommended (including mine) are over $100. Do you want a stock side window?
 
Thanks for the ideas guys! I think I will go with the pc-61 on the simple fact I want to use UV orange fans and I can only find (easily) 8cm ones. But who knows what will happen. Thanks again for the ideas.

I don't think you're looking very hard. First place I looked has them in 120mm: http://www.frozencpu.com/fuv-09.html

And 92mm:

Also, I strongly urge you to go with a case that uses 120mm fans. 80's don't move much air at tolerable noise levels.
 
HAHAHA, You shot me down. Thanks for doing all my work!

Edit: Is there any that have the UV leds in them.

Does that 7b have a window or a window I can buy from LL? I found windows for a 75 will those fit?
