Hey guys whats up..I'm looking for an atx case that has a window, and good airflow, preferably 120mm fans, but its ok if they are different size fans. Any suggestions? I'm a big antec fan so i dont know if that will help. I will be putting in the case the A8R32-MVP mobo, seagate 200gb HDD, DVD-RW, 500w PSU, X1900XTX, thinking also about an opteron processor, the heatsink would be thermaltake si-120. So thats about it for waht im putting into the case. I just dont know what case would look good. Any suggestions or case links would be most welcome. Thanks!
 
thank you..i was looking at that one earlier today..looks pretty sleek..any more suggestions?
 
not really, its really good, 6 fans in it so it has really good airflow, the LED's look nice. It has a lot of room to work with.
 
thanks..those cases look really nice especially the sunbam canse and its pretty cheap!!

not to hijack or anything, but is there anything like the super lanboy, but higher quality? I like the 120mm fans and the window and the brushed interior aluminum, but it looks moderately cheap, featureless, and thin. Is it quiet?

Super quiet, IMHO. I've tried Yate Loon 120mm fans in place of the included Antecs; provided better airflow and quieter operation, but didn't look as nice. As far as aluminum cases go, similar if not better choices include 2 Thermaltakes:

I've also read good things about the Ultra Aluminus:

I never thought I would like a thermaltake, but that Tsunami is pretty nice, thx.
 
I totally recommend the Masstige in black. It's a great deal, comes with room for like 3 120mm intakes at the front, a 120 exhaust (or 2 80's) and has 3 silent 80's in the side.

I've never had a better case... really.
 
Thermaltake Tsunami.

IMHO:
airflow 3/5(1 rear 12cm exaust, 1 front 12cm intake w dust filter, 1 8cm intake side pannel) , looks 5/5 (design), Use 5/5 (thumbscres, clips, rails for drives, on top audio/usb/IEEE1394 ports), Quality 5/5 (all aluminum caseing, well constructed sidepannel, well constructed front pannel/door)

reviews:
Overclocker Cafe <--- you know theyre trust worthy, there pic is a proc used as a tea bag :D
Techniz
Tech Tastic

i have sold a few of these things and they are the best cases i have ever assembled something with. Customers love em.
