HELP!!! LOOKING FOR GOOD CASE

[hungry4eva]

OK. Here's the deal. Tyan Thunder MB. It's really really big. I just bought ATC-110 case for it but I can only fit use 2 of 4 5.25 bays becasue board gets in the way. I also have antec sx-1040 and everything fits but its a little cramped. Here's what I want... Aluminum case with front door, about antec's height and atc's length, and great cooling. The ATC case is awesome, I'm just bummed everything doesn't fit. Please help... especially those running the dual setup. Thanks!

Look into a Lian Li PC70.

You'll need a full tower for sure, but the only aluminum full tower is the Lian Li PC-70. It's a good case, and I own two of them. If you want real space, try the Supermicro SC760P4, the Addtronics 7890A, the In-Win Q500, the AOpen HQ08, and the Antec SX1240. They're all excellent cases from what I've read, though I've only used the Antec SX1240 and the Lian Li PC-70. The In-Win worries me, as it has a slide-out mainboard and card tray, which can compromise rigidity of a full tower. The Addtronics has a slide-out mainboard tray but not with cards, so it still worries me, but not as much.

Thanks guys so far for your input. I like having a pull out motherboard tray. The ATC-110 had one. I would really like the case to have a front door. I've got the performance... but I really want it to look good. Aluminum case with white drives??? BLAh...

If you don't have to have aluminum, the W8500 from Addtronics would be a really nice case.http://www.addtronics.com/wtx8500.htm

Its huge, room for 5x5.25in Drives and 5x3.5in drives. 8 spots for fans. On top of that, it uses WTX (compatible with ATX).

I just ordered one for myself. They have them in black and beige:
