Best Mid-Tower Case?

[Ariste]

Hey everyone. I'm looking into buying a new system soon and am pretty set on what I'm going to get. Everything besides the case, that is 🙂

My main goal with this case is for cooling... I want a great cooling system to keep my OC'd stuff nice and cool. A nice looking case would be great as well, but cooling is the top priority really. My price range is around $100 ideally, but I wouldn't mind spending a little bit extra if needed.

I'm mostly looking for a mid-tower case, since I'll only have 1 HD, 1 DVD Drive and 1 Floppy Drive. No need for a full-tower at the moment. In the future, however, I might end up shoving more stuff in there, so I wouldn't be completely opposed to a full-tower.

Thanks for any advice,

Have you looked at TigerDirect or Cyberguys?

Kingwin 424 series, of course. And you also might want to check out some of the Silverstones. The Silverstone PSUs are also nice for the money.

Just bought a Silverstone PS at Newegg. It is super quiet and has active PFC. Highly recommended.

there's a sonata deal for around 65$ in hotdeals if you're interested.

I just got an Antec sonata that comes with a 380 PS. Great case except for the front bezel. Everything else is great about it.

I haven't personally shopped at this site, but i have seen it mentioned on these forums.
Here's a link. coolcases.com

If you REALLY want excellent cooling a standard case won't get it done.
These guys do modifications for you. Reasonably priced also.

This is probably where I will buy my next case.

Thanks for all of your advice guys 🙂 I think I might end up completely ditching my original specifications and go with a Full-Tower Cooler Master CM Stacker. It's huge and somewhat expensive, but it's got amazing stock cooling options. Also, thanks for the link xbassman, I'll definitely look into that.

Thanks again,
