What would you say are the top 10 "Cadillacs" of computer cases?

[Kaido]

Like P180, Sonata, etc...if you didn't have a budget and could buy the case of your dreams...what are the top 10 coolest, nicest, sweetest cases?

cant really list the top ten, but im kinda partial to thermaltakes tsunami and cooler masters cm stacker, myself

 

[johnnqq]

the super expensive zalman heatsink-case.

 

[Finns14]

ITs mostly personal opinion its just that some are more sturdy than other (which some stress is important but I tend to disagree casue how often does one move there tower around) and air is kinda important for a case.

I don't think there's such a thing as a "Cadillac of cases," is there? One man's flimsy is another man's light. One man's upgradable is another man's bulky.

Well, I mean in your opinion. Like, Lian-Lis are Cadillacs...really nice build quality.

Antec Solution Series is a Cadillac.

Up from there are BMW's, Mercedes, Jaquar, Yugo's (just checking to see if you are paying attention), Rolls Royce, Bentley.

My case, a Enermax FS2300BB. 23 5.25" drive bays, modding to handle two power supplies, and room to hold two more if ever necessary.

EDIT: And sturdy enough to sit on and roll around in the living room (all tile at my house). And yes, me and wife did this when we were moving in.

Case was about $450, and $125 to ship. The damn thing had a 106 pound shipping weight. My computer now weighs an estimated 165 pounds...

This is the website for my machine. I just finished installing new heat sinks on the Xeons in there too.

Cooler Master ATC-111C

Lian-Li PC-V1000

I have owned them both, and thought they were absolutely gorgeous and great to work with.

 

[Sunrise089]

9 Lian-Li's and the P-180

 

[ribbon13]

Thermaltake Tai Chi
Lian-Li PC-V2100B
Antec P180
Gigabyte Aurora
Coolermaster Stacker / Praetorian
Supermicro SC942i-600B

 

[PzyMazter]

If only I could get a P180 I could be happy .

 

[timecop67]

The Praetorian PAC-T01 is a good case once you replace the loud 80mm fans with some good Nexus fans or add a fan controller to your case. I have an Intel 1 ghz system built on this case. If you have a faster processor and more heat I wonder how well the 80mm fans would get rid of the extra heat? Other than using 80mm fans it is pretty well designed case without the door option.

 

[hytek369]

CM Stackers

 

[calculusz]

Antec Sonata, Antec P180, CoolerMaster WaveMaster, Silverstone, etc.

CM Stacker 830/810, CM Praetorian 7300, CM Wavemaster, Antec P180, Lian Li V1000/2000 series, Lian Li PC-65, and Silverstone TJ03 would all be on my list.
