Antec Sonata or Antec Super LanBoy

[SniperWulf]

What do you think guys? I'm primarily looking for low noise and weight, with pretty decent air flow... anyone with these cases care to chime in???

Yeah, I want one too. I don't care for the lights but the case and 120mm fans are very nice.

I have both the Sonata and the original Lanboy. The Sonata is comparitively heavy and I think the airflow would be worse as the optional fan is on the inside of the drive rack. My Lanboy is a little 'flimsy' compared to the Sonata.

I guess if the Sonata's stock PS is enough, I would go with it. But I would prefer a Super Lanboy with a True480 although it will run you an extra 60 or so.

tough call, i like them both
overall i like the super lanboy.. i'd paint the grille to match the color of the case, and it would look good this way. the clear grille is ugly, but other than that, nice case.

P160 if you want a performance case, Sonata if you want a quiet and good looking one.

SLK3700BQE or P160, just to make it harder

tbh though those two are kind of in the middle of those cases anyway. I assume 3700BQE similar weight and noise to sonata, with slightly lesser psu (-30w) and better airflow (better front fan hole positioning), while P160 similar weight (Alu) and noise to supar lanboy.
