Sup all. I have been thinking about selling my 7237 and getting an Antec sx1030B. I don't know if there is a huge improvement with this but my brother needs a case and I was thinking if I gave him a decent deal on this Enlight I could buy a different case. How much does the Antec case go for anyways? Is there anything better in this price range? Is it even worth it? It is just that my brother lives in Alaska and the choices of cases up there with 300 watt PSU's are pretty slim, most of them are full towers and the stores like to charge an arm and a leg to put a 300watt PSU in it.

Thanks!

If you need to upgrade your system, says, add HD or CDRW and you run out of space....then switching to Antec would be a good idea.
But if you aren't going to add anything else inside your case, then stick with 7237.....there's nothing much differences you would notice.

If heat is your concern, then going with Antec would also be a good idea. Keep in mind that your 7237 is a good case, which I also have as a backup system, adding more fans would help reduce heat problem.

If you do need to open up your case often, then Antec is a good case to go with. It has more work space, more HD cage and it looks good too. But if you don't, trust me, stick with 7237 and save some money until your next major upgrade.

The Enlight cases are good but the Antec cases are great. Do both you and your brother a favor and go for it

I have both an Antec sx830 and sx1030...these are top-notch cases...and if i need the room i would certainly plunk down the $100 for one these.
