Which of these cases is the best:
1. Corsair Obsidian 750D Full Tower
2. Corsair Obsidian CC650DW
3. Antec P193 V3 ATX Advanced Super Midi Tower
4. CoolerMaster HAF Stacker 935 Stackable Full Mod-Tower with Window Black
5. CoolerMaster HAF X Full Tower
6. SilverStone TJ10
7. NZXT Phantom 630
8. Corsair Graphite 760T

What are the differences between them and what should I take to an high end system (the prices are the same).
* I'm certainly hesitating if I choose Corsair Obsidian 750D or Corsair Graphite 760T, this is why I would love if you can focus in them
Thanks.
 
My 2 cents are plan your build and buy the case that you like looking at more that also full fills your needs. High end system doesn't say anything about your build and what type of cooling that you need. Unless its sitting under a desk or in a closet then maybe it wont matter. My case sits on top of my desk. Buy what you like to look at more that fits the parts you plan on buying.

Corsair Graphite 760T
 
They all have their pros and cons. The Haf X is probably the best case for cooling, but is fugly and uses a lot of plastic, which I personally don't like. I would probably go with the 750D myself.
 
What about Corsair Obsidian 450D? it has good air flow, filters from all the directions and it's smaller, but I don't know if 28.5 long GPUs get in there because of the hdd cage
 
Im going back and forth on the 760t and 750d myself. I think both are mostly great with some annoying flaws.


my main gripes

the 750d has a beautiful front but if you use optical drives its going to ruin the smooth clean look.

the 750d also has lots of complaints about poor airflow but they might be working on a replacement front panel that will presumably have mesh like the 450D(based on this http://hardforum.com/showpost.php?p=1040964430&postcount=9)


the 760t has a manufacturing issue where there can be "Scratches" near the window handle, which is due to the molding process they use. From what I understand this happens on all cases and some are worse then others.
example http://youtu.be/IngYx3m1ufw?t=3m45s very annoying to have that on a $200 case that has a huge beautiful window as a big selling point. This scratch will also be on the other "back side" as well.

also the top of the 760t despite having places for 3 fans, does not include any fans up there and even has a cover on it that offers no ventilation if you decide to use fans up there, so you woul dhave to remove it, which makes it look unfinished and just kinda stupid IMO

why they didn't put a magnetic filter like the 750d has...is beyond me, a black one would have looked so good and actually been functional.


despite all that I'll probably go with (most likely) the 760t and pray they offer a fix for the top and by some miracle my window doesn't have a big injection mark on the window.
