it's a little pricey, but in cases, as in power supplies, you TOTALLY get what you pay for.

there is no such thing as a cheap good case. (aside from the Compucase 6A19)

NOTE: I do mean that within reason. some people consider $50 cheap, some $20.
 
Heh. Looks are subjective. But I'm sure the quality reeks 😉. Personally I have the NZXT Guardian. The looks got boring in about 5 minutes but I have to admit it's a solidly built case, except for the front which looks plasticy. The metal is nice and thick (not crappy like my friend's Aspire case) and there aren't any sharp edges. Nice and big, and good to show off at lanparties. My biggest gripe is the lack of wire management features >_<. Duct tape did it for me 😉.

If you're into the whole gamer look*, I suggest you look at some Raidmax cases. They've been in this game for quite a while now.

*I gotta admit, the gamer look wears off after a while, but people that know nothing about computers automatically think your computer is "awesome" becuase of the case....heh.

May I suggest an Antec Super Lanboy... It has blue light and a window but not so overdone, plus it's aluminum, light weight, and and has pretty good cooling (two 120 mm fans). It's a bit flimsy, but what can you expect with thin aluminum. I have two of these.
 
the silverstone temjin cases are awesome, they look sharp and simple, and they have excellent airflow. i have one myself and i couldn't be happier.

Yeah. That's a very interesting layout for the case... How do you like having the hard drives mounted like that? That BTX form factor, right?

The Silverstone TJ06 (and the other variants from Aerocool, Enermax, etc.) was not one of the better ideas - airflow is all screwed up and lots of wasted space. The other (more normal cases) in the Temjin series are better.

i am getting 10 degree differences in temepratures from another normal case, and if you add two more extra fans like i did, i cools like ice. the airflow is actually really good for the cpu and pci cards, because i now have 2 intake and 2 outake fans and it works like a charm. not to mention the case is roomy and looks really cool.
 
I like the concept of the Silverstone TJ06 (ATX), and it is similar in concept to Intels new BTX standard.

I think that they could have done a better job such as:

_____________
PSU, ROMs

Upper Mobo, 2x 120mm wind tunnel

Lower Mobo, HDD cage
_____________

Maybe even have side & front 120mm fans for the lower mobo.

Just my take.
