Looking for ATX Case with USB Ports on Front

I am looking for an Mid-Tower ATX case, for use with an Abit KT7A-Raid MB w/1Ghz AMD T-Bird, that has USB Ports located on the front of the case. I would like 3-4 5.25 bays and 1-2 3.5 bays external, 1-2 3.5 bays internal, Min. 300W PSU, and room for additional cooling fans. I am having a hard time locating anything close. If anyone has seen or used a similar case I would appreciate a heads up on where to get it.


Need sleeeeeeep!
 
I don't know which case to tell you to get, but if you can find one with all the features you're looking for EXCEPT the USB ports on the front, you could always get that case and then get the FrontX (www.frontx.com). They have USB ports coming out soon.

Or, if your ABIT came with the two extra USB headers (like mine did), you could try mounting them in one of the plastic bay covers on the front of your case... cut holes in the plastic, then mount the metal plate on the back of it. I'm experimenting with it right now.

Just a couple suggestions; sorry I can't think of a good case...
 
How about this?

I added my own! It took a while, but they work great and don't use up the ports on the back. I have a MSI 694D motherboard with the front USB headers.
 
Both are good suggestions and solutions to my problem. At least until the case maufacturers catch up on the USB solution themselves. R0b0tN1k nice clean installation.

Thanks for the help.
