Best full tower gaming case?

Solution
I own an NZXT Phantom 820 and I couldn't be happier. It's big, which is what I wanted, and very easy to work on/in. I'm using a Phanteks TC14PE with plenty of clearance and cooling is great. The Phantom 630 came out after I bought the 820, or I would have had a terrible time choosing between the two.
For me it will be the BitFenix Shinobi XL. Its a big beast , has support for a lot of Rads ( 2x 360mm , 1x240mm , 1x140mm , Basically everywhere ) so you can put a beastly loop(s) and have no worry , thats what you would expect from a Full Tower right ? , has 4 USB 3.0 Ports and that Supercharge port plus it looks awesome.

Does it absolutely need to be full tower?

If the best cooling performance is what you're after, then take a look at the Silverstone Fortress FT02.

It is, as far as I know, the best in terms of cooling performance.

There is another case which is just as good, but isn't yet for sale.
The Silverstone RV04.
Look it up.


As for full towers, the Rosewill Blackhawk Ultra should be on your shortlist.

(Again, assuming you're going for Quad SLI GTX 780 or something)

The NZXT Phantom 820 is also really good.

The Corsair Obsidian 800D, while replaced by the newer 900D still holds its own.

It's one of the best cases for watercooling you can find.

And here are some other amazing Full towers.
You really can't go wrong.
