Ok right now I've narrowed it down to 3 cases to get, because my case just plain old sucks. First one is the CoolermasterCavalier

Second one is the Antec Super LANboy

Third and the one im least interested in because of the front fan panel is the
ThermalTake Soprano

Could you guys just give me some advice as to which one you would get and why???thanks in advance
 
Of the three, my choices are:
1. Soprano - Great ventilation with x120mm fans plus 92mm side fan. Cheap plastic door (consider the Tsunami instead)
2. Super LANboy - 2x120mm fans, great little case, very light, so it's not super sturdy. Cheap plastic door and cheesy blue plastic air intake.
3. Cavalier - 80mm case fan in the 21st century; very bad. Hate the bluish panel on the aluminum door.
 
Well friend of mine that deals wiht computers for a living said that the soprano is made of steel which keeps in heat vs the lanboy which is aluminum and is good at getting rid of heat. I dont really like hte look of the LANboy either but I dont know. The Cavalier doesn't look too bad and it got good reviews overall in newegg. Can anyone else help me out???
 
if you don't want to buy a bigger case in a year then spent the extra $20 bucks and get a P180
 
steel or aluminum offers no air cooling advantage. The case weight is the only factor in the material used. sure aluminum transmits heat faster than steel, but, the case shouldnt be heating up. If it does, you have an air pressure and flowrate problem.
