Can anyone recommend me a case?

Any of the Antec 1030 cases (including the ones that are made by different people) are really nice. I bought the one made by Enermax(I think). It comes in black with a blue face plate, 3 80MM fans and an Enermax 300W PS.
 
Antec as mentioned
Enermax 710-BB - same case as the 1030SX but with an enermax Psu and in a cool blue colour
Chenbro Junior, a little ugly in my opinion, but some love the look. Very nice cooling options with a 120mm fan
 
Other cases to consider besides the Antec SX1030 (looks good in black, I have to admit) or the Antec SX830 are:

Hydraulic Case (In Biege, Black, Silver - Above average quality, lacks some cooling)
Fong Kai 320 (In Black 😀, very good quality, and has a built in space for a 92mm and 120mm fan! :Q)
Those Explorer Cases (Eh...decent, but looks nice)
Other "color cases" (be weary since some of them aren't that good in quality)


You can check out some of the cases I mentioned at:

Directron.com
Colorcases.com
Colorcase.com

Enjoy! 😀
 
hydraulic at amamax. pretty sweet hydraulic door, black, mobo tray, 42 base price...

hell i'd buy it if i didn't already have a sweet case.

edit: I have the fong kai 320 mentioned above, and i like it alot. i paid too much for it though, and i wish it had a removable mobo tray.
 
I just bought an Antec SX830 off TheNerds.net for 79.04 + 11.95 ground shipping. I ordered on Monday at 11:00 a.m. and the case was delivered Tuesday afternoon.

With a larger mb you would probably be better off with one of the deeper models, such as:

Fong Kai 320
Globalwin YCC 802
SuperPower KS 299XP

Or any of the larger full-tower, work-station type cases in order to get the drive cages up and away from the mb .........

Check at A-Pro for their information on what case fits what mb for some examples .........
