I'm having a hard time deciding between the Lancool PC-K58W and CM HAF 912 with the Seasonic X-650 psu. They both cost about $165. I'm thinking the Lancool. What you think would be best?
 
I myself think cooler master's new design looks somewhat cheap. I really like the lancools design and I think its made of mostly Aluminum. IMO I'd go with the lancool.
 
Im kinda partial to the Cooler Master myself. I like all the air flow goodies it has and the ones I saw down at Microcenter looked pretty solid.
 
Any Lian Li is a great choice. All other brands have puke-worthy case designs.
 
Newegg has LIAN LI PC-7FN Black Aluminum ATX Mid Tower Computer Case for $70 with free shipping after applying coupon code EMCYTZT190.
 
the ACTS 840 was selling for around 120 + ship. One of the classiest cases IMO.

Wow, A+ post.

What are your plans for the case? Do you plan to strictly air cool, or do you use water cooling? Future plans to water cool? What peripherals are going into it?

Both of the cases are almost identical as far as almost everything is concerned. If you have a hot video card the CM has one plus in that it supports a side panel fan. Outside of that it would be mostly down to aesthetics and brand preference.

Currently I'm using a CoolerMaster ATCS 840 and despite being sold on it when I ordered, am still surprised by how great of a chassis it has been. It is enormous in all respects, but I've never been concerned with size. Everything runs pretty frigid in it, and it has a ton of room for expansion.
