Not sure what you're asking here -- what do you need a recommendation on? I thought you already had the fans.

I do 😀 I just wanted to see what Ruby and Motf would come up with

I haven't kept up on recent cases. When I built my last box in 2008, I splurged and bought a Cosmos S. When I bought it, I said I'd use it for at least 2 generations, if not more, due to the cost. I like the case quite a bit; the only thing I don't like is that I have it shoved back in a narrow opening between the wall and my desk and it is a minor pain to pull it out to do anything with it.

At any rate, Cooler Master cases are quite good and I see a lot of people with high-end rigs using them.

I've heard good things about CM but I'm tempted to get the Define XL case:

I think the Yate Loons are fine and there is also a 4 pack of Cooler Master fans for $15 at Newegg. If you're going to run the box 24/7 for years or if the box will make it a pain to pull out and replace fans, you might want to put higher quality fans in critical places.

Hackintosh Intel Q8300 SLGUR @ 3.5 GHz EP45-UD3LR 6 GB RAM
 
Just looked at finances. I can't easily afford a new case without cutting costs for a while. I'll just wait. OR i could just not buy another dell IPS
 
I checked and I have until 10/18 to return the 2600K and board for a full refund. They're going to stay boxed up in my man cave for a week or two, it seems. 😀
