only one I know for sure that has one, is the corsair one, and im not playing $300 for a case.

So if anyone knows of any others, please let me know.
 
Also remember that the CPU hole is made for motherboards with the socket on the left of the board i.e. 1366/775. The 1156 socket is in the center of the board and may not line up with all cases.
 
i had not known that. I do have a 1366, so i should be ok.

ive also found that the

antec 200
Antec VSK-2000
rosewill destroyer

i really like the destroyer, pissed i didnt pick it up for $60 plus free shipping when the edd had it. Looks like they are not gonna carry it anymore.
 
The cooler master haf 922 mid tower and full tower also have the cut out for the back plate. I have made a build for a friend with the mid haf 922 case, and I must say it was one of the easiest and roomiest case I ever worked with. It is well worth the $100 dollars.
 
Pretty much all of the cooler master chassis have the CPU retention hole.

For CM off the top of my head:
- CM 690 II Advanced
- HAF 932
- HAF 922
- Storm Scout
- Storm Sniper
- Gladiator 600 (G600)
 
thanks! I am liking the gladiator, and rosewill told me the destroyer will be in at the end next week. decisions decisions.
