I'm deciding to get a new case; it would be either this one, LX-6A19, or this one, Chebro Gaming Bomb. Both have potentially equal cooling, though the chenbro only has a 92mm intake. It also looks nicer, but the LX-6A19 can hold more stuff. I really am split on which one to go for, so I would like your guys take on this.

The Chenbro case is too gaudy and plasticy looking. I prefer simple cases, then mod them on my own if I want. So I guess I 5th the vote for the LX case.

Chenbro case is nice.... The only reason I wouldn't get it is because there is no reset button on the case (only power button). I'm not sure why this was left off as the case is very solid & toolless!!

CompuCase w/ good fans hands down. The Chenbro case looks cheap & ugly.

I would normally knee-jerk a vote in favor of the Compucase based on what coolcases.com does with them (and some AT success stories). But I went and took a careful look at the Chenbro. It is kind of ricey, but if you get past the looks (I could deal with the blue or silver ones), it is very well made. The only lack is rubber HD isolation, and that is easily remedied. So I don't think you can go too far wrong with either of them. If the 6A19 does have a drawback it's that it may be a bit shallow in some situations. I have heard of a drive in one bay or another interfering with a full size add-on card. Flip a coin...

after looking over things and thinking about it, i could later add a window to the compucase, while the chenbro is stuck pretty much as is. also the compucase comes with a 120mm fan, a bonus. since so many of ya'll also said compucase, i'm going to go with that one. thanks a bunch!
