Hey everyone. I'm planning a build for late May (see sig) and I was planning on getting the Antec P182. However, it seems they are disappearing from everywhere. They're still in stock in a couple of places, but I don't think they'll last long. Anyways, in case (pun!) they don't come back, I should look into getting a different case. I'm open to pretty much everything.

Should be stylish. That can range from being acrylic to just being elegant like the P182. I want something that looks good.

Should be quiet. I'm planning on putting in Scythe S-Flex 800RPM fans, but with those, it should be quiet.

Should have a good airflow pattern. It should be able to flow well front to back to help keep components cool.

If it has a window or is acrylic, it needs to have a way to manage the cables.

Thanks guys!
 
I like the 690 and because the're cheap, you can get one and some nice fans + a cheap fan controler for the price of a more expensive case. Mine is really quiet with all fan bays filled with low RPM
120s. The window costs extra, but you really dont need it. Also, the 690 is really easy to mod if that matters...
