I'm setting up a gaming box + TV watching box... Got a good deal on a Newcastle Athlon + mobo (ATX). Need a new case, but I'd like it to not be a massive Chieftec/Antec full tower. My last case was a Fong Kai FK-320. Cool in the beginning a pain to work with afterwards... Too heavy, a drag to move, etc.
My Linux box is a Dell 400SC, I like its low-noise, and think its right-sized. Are there any equivalents from Antec or Chenbro?
Are desktop style cases a major PITA for DIYers? I'd like to get a slick looking desktop case (never worked in one), kind of like the Cooler Master here.
The Sonata from Antec is interesting, but $125 is a bit much for a case...
Any recommendation < $75 would be great.
I would be willing to shell out more. But, the case would have to have a slide out motherboard tray, be completely tool-free... Something like a powermac style case with the mobo on a door would be nice.
