Which case? Sky Hawk MSR4610 OR Lian-Li PC-60

After looking over many threads here i'm down to 2 cases and i would like to know your input please.
I like both and newegg has both for around same price of $140.. One thing that i notice on the skyHawk was neat
pull of the MB from the case
THIS IS THE PIC OF IT
Does the pc-60 have a this feature as well? Such a great idea cuz i do alot of mb changes and i test out HSF all the time so
i hate pulling my mB out and in all the time.

anyways let me know what you guys think.

 
I say go with the Lian Li PC-60. It has the same slideout MB tray and it is a lot easier to get replacement parts for the Lian-Li than it is for the Sky Hawk. I'm not sure about the skyhawk, but the Lian Li PC-60 also has a built in fan control. Lian Li (and not to forget Coolermaster cases) have pretty much been the standard for Aluminum cases, so I say go with any flavor of the PC-6X series.
 
I`m a Lian Li Convert!, bought a PC-60 and lopped off 6 degrees off my temps ! -

the big part is that before in the steel case, i was running a 7000RPM Delta on the FOP38 HS/Fan, I`m now running a 4300RPM YS-Tech, If I put the delta back on I would imagine the temp difference would be more like 10 degrees!.. the whole plot is far quieter and I still haven`t got a decent heatsink - next move is to replace the Globalwin with a Alpha or Swiftech orThermalright and run an even more quiet lazy but 80mm fan on for even better cooling and near-macintosh noise !... Lian Li really must have got their sums right with this case 🙂

One tip with the PC60 is to replace the lame AddA Exhaust fan with a Thermaltake 3000RPM one or even better, a Panaflo, I left the two AddAs in the front but run them at full blast (probably about 1500RPM looking at them)
