I need help deciding on a new case

Well it's my first build so I want it to go smooth


I plan on using the case for years to come and hopefully many builds. What I am thinking of for a case:

  • Room to fit the Taller tower coolers (Ultra-120 Extreme)

    A Removable Motherboard tray (Helps making the installation go a lot more smooth)

    A Large amount of room for future upgrades for these crazy long GPUs that are coming out (And again a lot of room to help installation go smoother)

    Room for the large PSUs

    Don't forget good airflow!

    My limit is about $150

None of these are set in stone, their more like guidelines. Thanks alot!

Edit: The case currently in my eye is the Thermaltake Shark
 
Go to the first page of the C&C section, enter Akasa into the search field near the top of the thread list, click on "Search" - voila.

Those 2 cases are all well and good, currently I think I have found my case

Stacker 810 (RC-810-SKN1)
or
CM Stacker (STC-T01-UWK)

They both meet all of my Guidelines but I'm not really sure witch the better case....
 
I think the original stacker can take two PSUs (if you have loads of HDDs, it will be cheaper than a single monstrous PSU). I don't think the 810 can. The 810 is also ATX only while the original is convertible to BTX. These Stacker models are for extreme systems, not silent ones.
