Hello, I'm looking for an advice on which Antec case to get, I'll be using it for gaming so I'll need the cooling and don;t need to be worryin about the fans as I will get my own fans. Any suggestion, and also power supply does not need to be included, but any suggestion would be great.

A 3000b with black drives looks pretty darn good. Superior cooling and design and inexpensive, $46 shipped from Amazon. The side duct works very well with my Abit IC7, but it may be an issue for motherboards with CPU sockets near the center of the board as the duct is rigid, can't be moved, and won't line up with the center of the CPU HSF. If the duct was moveable, I think this case would be practically perfect and can't think of one that would have better cooling perfromance. It is working out very well for me, but the duct could become an issue down the road depending on socket location....

Two of my friends have this case. I'm leaning towards this one, however I like the way Sonta case's designed, any suggestions or critics?

I got the Sonata from Frys for 50bucks on sale. I like it, very quiet well made case with 2 120mm fans, using Thermalright XP-90, never goes above 45C's

I've been using the 3700AMB for awhile now. Great case with a great psu.

I also recommend the P160. Very stylish, quiet and cool. I just built mine with the Antec Neopower PS and I am quite happy with both.

A friend of mine has the Super Lanboy and it moves a nice amount of air. Personally? I couldn't beat the value of my SLK-2650, although there are certainly better overall cases. Antec 350w PSU, 120mm fan, drive rails, noise isolation grommets - all for a very attractive price.

I think I might end up with Super Lanboy however I'll replace the fans and PSU...
Thanks for your thoughts and so on forth... Antec cult's growing don;t you think?
