Need help deciding which case....

The top two choices I have right now are:
Antec Nine Hundred: on sale now for $90, http://www.compusa.com/products/product_info.asp?product_code=342484&pfp=hpf11
or
Cooler Master C5, for $50, http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16811119047
So what would yall suggest? A couple things I am looking for are portability (would like to take to LANs) and size, would like something with quite a bit of room to work in. Also, which is better to keep the PSU, top or Bottom??? I really don't know..... Would you mind telling me some of the pro's and con's of both. Thanks so much, I would really like to keep it under $100 and to buy it this week. Thanks.
 
Antec Nine Hundred. No doubt about it for me. I really don't like the look of the CM case. The Antec case is a descent size, although i'm not sure about the weight; plus its cooling is far superior than that of the Cooler Master.
 
i'd get a centurion 534, the 900 just feels too cheap to me, compared to my centurion.

mostly plastic on the front panel, etc.
 
Well, I still can't decide..... The biggest question I still have though would be what are the pro's and con's of putting the PSU at the bottom rather than the top? Thanks.
 
There only reason i can think of for putting a PSU at the bottom of the case rather than the top is if it's non-modular then it may be easier hiding the cables. Personally, i wouldn't let something like that affect my decision on buying a case.
 
Ok, I think, with that, I will go ahead and get the Antec 900, mainly because of its superior air cooling, I don't really have the time, patience, nor money to going into a WC setup. Thanks again!
