Any case that is simple/sleek, but non-square?

I have always liked aluminum cases. Which is why I absolutely loved the CoolerMaster's WaveMaster's case. Recently I rarely see any case quite like it. I was wondering if there are any aluminum mid-tower case that can support 5 hard drives and has that sort of style. I also kind of like the Dell XPS 700 casing too. http://cache.gawker.com/assets...006/07/dell_xps700.jpg

Currently, I have a CoolerMaster CM690. While I like it, I would love to have something sleeker. Evo 830 and such I think its way too.. fat.

The Tt Tsunami is sort of styled after the Wave Master and you can get it in aluminum, but not quite as much aluminum as was in the WM. However, if you'd be interested in a real WM, I'd be able to fix you up. It's listed at both links in my sig. below - PM me. You may also be interested in the CM Mystique cases - SVC.com usually has some though the 631 has been DC'd for a long time, so I doubt they have many left and the all-aluminum 632 is hen's teeth too all you can find is the steel with Al bezel version (632S).

I do have a Wave Master already, but was ultimately forced to 'upgrade' when those monstrous 10.1" video cards came out (8800GTX). It worked for a while, but I had to remove a few hard drives just to accommodate it.

Well, the Tsunami is basically the same chassis as the Rosewill R6A/Compucase 6A series. They have problems with long cards too. The designers of the Wave Master and Praetorian went off and started Silverstone. Some of their early models had wavy fronts too and until recently, you could still find many of the early models out in the market. Really hard to find anything as clean looking as the original. I liked the Tt Eureka, but it's hard to find now. It is a big case but Tt only messed up the side with its weird monster eye... It's Shark sibling got messed up both front and side.

Hmm. I guess at the moment, Silverstone is my best shot, I'll wait a while and see what else comes out i guess. Thanks Zepper for the info.
