Need Help picking case

I do like the tool free cases, what's the difference between the antec and the cooler master? besides the cooler master being tool free and having a firewire port, etc?
 
Tool Free is great if your swapping drives a lot as drives slide in an lock on place..

Firewire I think was a MAC thing and I think iPods use it..
Its like a faster USB port...

All my cases have been Antec and the $60 link with free shipping is tempting..
 
Here are a couple more to add to your "Look At" list:

Rosewill R560x series (right now there are 5601, 5604 and 5605 versions). Well made cases with 11" of measured card space. The 5601 has one limitation in that the top 3.5" external bay is limited to floppy drives only. Perhaps the plastic bezel could be cut away to allow for other types of devices. The 01 and 05 have 270 degree doors (means they can park out of the way against the side of the case). The 04 has a more limited door swing.

The Rosewill Conqueror models are also decent and are the same case as the Silverstone Precision (PS01).

Some of these are selling at excellent prices and/or free ship right now. Most of the other Rosewill case lines except for the R6A/R6X units (hard to find any more) are your typical, Low-end, budget boxes.

If the Antec300 is big enough for you, then go for it. I think its a tad small, but then again, i've always wanted a full tower. (haf932 / LL V1000B) owner

cheap mid tower, but kind of lacking in the wire management department. its not wide enough to have much space behind the mb to hide wires, nor are there many (only 1) holes to route PSU cables back there.

i guess the cheap price may just override those cons.
