Grasss, you can pick up some fans at a computer show for pretty cheap. I got my 2 80mm from Outpost for $5 each w/ free overnight shipping 2 months ago. The bigger fan cost $10. Don't know if it's still available.

the same Antec fans costed $12 at Best Buy.

One question. All these great cases holds ATX power supplies, correct? I have an LX board in a case and thought I could just get a new mobo to upgrade. Got the new mobo but turns out that the PS connectors weren't ATX... The case said baby AT ATX. I don't know what it means. Anyways, just to make sure. A confirmation from you guys and I'm off ordering a new case.

Anybody with the SX830 or SX1030, how are the edges? Are they all beveled? I couldn't find anything about the edges and I HATE getting my fingers cut when working on my computer.

I just looked at the pictures on apushardware.com and saw that the edges are indeed smooth. I was just about to edit my post when I saw your response. Thanks for the first hand experience. :)

Fellas, I have the old favorite InWinQ500 that has 11 total drive bays and can be moded to the max. It can be had for just $79 in places. I have a 120mm intake and one at every exhaust hole. Many companies buy these and put some fan holes in it and say it's theirs, ie the Tornado cases. This case rocks.

Grass - Sx1030 came w/ 2 fans. There is room to put 2-3 more, but you will have to buy these 80 mm fans.

Suntek M2000. Very well engineered. Pull out the mobo in a sec. There are cool clips for the cables, so it doesn't get too messy. Plus, if you're worried about edges, they are allll very smooth, you don't have to worry about splattering blood all over you shiny pure new chassis.

The only complaints I can think of is that it's only 2*5.12 and 1*3.5. Should work for most of us. I just need a burner and a DVD.

A friend of mine is an insane hardware reviewer. He really got into it, so he held one up a meter high and let it drop to the floor. It didn't break a bit! Great construction.

It costs 130$ here in Israel, so it should probably cost a lot less in the States.

And it's pretty!
