Need NZXT Case Feedback

I am building a computer for my friend right now and she wants a case with a clear side panel.
She likes the design of the NZXT Apollo Crafted Series Mid-Tower Case - Silver and NZXT LEXA S Classic Series Mid Tower Steel Chassis - Black. I haven't had much experience with NZXT computer cases and I am wondering if anyone can give me any feedback on these 2 cases.

Her computer will be running on:
i5-750
GIGABYTE GA-P55-USB3 LGA 1156 Intel P55 USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
Sapphire Radeon 5770
OCZ 600W PSU
Western Digital 1TB 7200RPM HDD
2x2gb corsair ddr3 1333 ram.

I am mostly concerned about the fit and also air flow for the case. However, I don't think she will be doing much or if any overclocking.

If these 2 are not good, any other recommendations with a clear side panel design?

Thanks

I have the tempest evo and air flow is great, space is great,look is great, etcetcetc. its a very good solid case. wire management was a bit tiresome (kinda forced the back on in the end) but it works well for the type of case that it is. comp specs are in sig and here are some pics

i would assume that the quality of build would be similar across their line of products.
( these are old pics actualy lol. i need to post some new ones)
 
Thank you for the feedback and pictures. I decided on getting the NZXT Apollo for her. She won't be using it for anything intensive so it should work just fine =D

I'm not sure how to close threads, so I guess any mod can close this thread now =D
 
The only NZXT cases worth their price are the Classic series and the M59. Great cable management.
