Time for a new case!! Im in need of HELP!

[VedderSkinZ]

Ok guys, im currently upgrading my PC. Right now I have an Antec Lanboy case, but its full of dust and whatever else, and it causes a ton of heat because theres VERY VERY little room inside the case. Id like something with MORE room, and something that looks pretty cool.

Now of course price is a factor, so im not lookin to spend too much, but if you guys can throw out some ideas that would be great! I used to like the old alienware cases they put out (since now they have changed)...

It could have a window in it for all i care...Im not too picky.

yeah pretty much that's all your gonna get on this board, you might what to ask somewhere else where people are a little more open minded.

The Skyhawk case in the MSR series that dealsonic carries is hard to beat for the money (< $30. +sh). Newegg has one also, but the consensus here is that Newegg's doesn't look as good - but I like the looks of mine. The one that dealsonic carries looks like a Lian Li and was originally intended to compete in that market.
And it is still very light at around 12 pounds net.

.bh.

Looks like the egg doesn't have mine any more, but they do have a Lian Li looking one with an LCD display and an air duct on the left side for about $50. + shipping. At that point, I'd be thinking about an Antec SLK3000-B (~$50. shipped). But that's not too light to be carrying to LAN parties, etc. I could easily go upwards from there, but I'd need to know your limit re. shipped price.

.bh.

Now that we have a price range: Kingwin 424/Beantech Igloo/Victor (basically the same case with variations on features). The thermaltake Swing looks pretty nice. And on the top end, the new AOpen Nouveau looks sharp. And some of the CoolerMaster Centurion or Cavalier are nice too.

Buy my next case before i do. Lian Li PC-70 full tower, hovering at $150. Use Froogle.

You will never have to buy an ATX case again. If you want lots of air flow. Install 2-80x38mm fans in front or do what i will do. A paired couple of 92x38, on a fan controller of course.

What ever you decide on, two things are a must for me. No door, reasons? Break,sag, get in the way,get bumped into, not worth the little quiet they provide.

Slide out motherboard tray is a must.
