My previous favorite case was the Antec 900, it had incredible cooling and it looked great.My new favorite is the Antec GX500.

I just got this Jonsbo W2 ATX Aluminum Case a few days ago. It uses a dual chamber style similar to the Corasir Air 240, but the W2 can fit full size ATX motherboards, 280mm from AIO coolers, and even an optical drive.

They also make a windowed version, but I like this minimalistic look better. :cool:

The W2 case is very elegant looking. Is newegg selling these or did you have to buy a pallet of them from alibaba? Where does the optical drive fit?

Please post some pics after you complete your build and tell us if it is still your fav.

It's actually pretty hard for me to pick one favorite case, but I will say the first one that came to mind is the InWin Tou:

I think their 904 is beautiful too:

A lot of InWin's high-end cases are really nice looking. Corsair makes great looking cases as well. My personal favorite of theirs is the 760T.

You keep posting that nerd porn and i am going to have to go afk for a bit. ():) That Win tou case is absolutely the sexiest thing i have ever seen as far as a case goes.

Yes -- server cases, as Philly Cheese says.

This makes me wistful -- tearful -- about my 2007 project.

I always throw in a picture of that project on this forum when this topic comes up. And now I think I should feed WGusler some pictures of my duct-boxes for the same project.

The sad thing that underscores this: I gave the "Chrome Window" project to my brother in 2011. It just seemed too big for my room, and I should have instead prepared it for a custom-water project.

And my brother and I are now "estranged" for totally unrelated reasons.

Anyway, I was poking around and discovered some pictures I'd made of the project that I'd never posted or shared before.

the project used a 1995 Compaq ProLiant Server case. I had to tap new threaded holes in the motherboard pan to make it ATX-compatible. Anyway, I now wonder why I even gave it to my brother -- regardless of our . . . current disagreement . . .
