I am going to get:

- Athlon 64 3500+
- ASUS A8V Deluxe
- 1gb Corsair 3200
- DVD combo drive
- 160gb Western Digital hdd
- floppy drive
- 9800 pro for now, will upgrade to 6800 ultra later

I am just wondering which case i should buy, I was looking at these three:

- http://www.newegg.com/app/View...=11-133-133&depa=1
- http://www.newegg.com/app/View...=11-144-089&depa=1
- http://www.newegg.com/app/View...=11-144-007&depa=1

I just need help deciding which to get. I am mostly worried about cooling, that is why im focusing on the 120mm fan ones. Please help, thanks.
 
Of the three listed, the Tsunami is the best IMO. If you are considering others then look at the Antec Sonata and Super-Lanboy (a bit smaller) as well as cooler masters cases (Praetorian and others)

so for around $100 the best ones are basically the Tsunami and The Praetorian. Now what is better 4 80mm or 2 120mm and a 90mm? :/

120 not 130
 
They all look to be based off the same case. The Chenming cases that used to be rebadged as Enermax, Cheiftec and Antec (SX series). The original Alienware cases were built off of this case as well.

My answer would be to go with which one you like the features of and what looks best to you. I don't know that I'd want anything named Tsunami at this point though.
