I am trying to find a decent case where I don't have to pay a lot in shipping. Some on Newegg.ca are as high as $50 plus tax. So I have a few in mind but Only one stands out as expecptional THis one:http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811139014 If there is anything I am missing on which online retailers have the best shipping fees for cases let me know. Other wise please feel free to criticize this case..

Newegg is a very good company - generally with a number of options with free shipping. You can also try Amazon with PRIME membership - shipping is free in the US (not certain about Canada)

I have had very good luck with Antec cases in the past - and the Corsair you have seems good. I recently purchased this Coolermaster: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119265
and it is absolutely huge and was amazing to work with. The style takes up a bit of room, but a solid case. Works well as my Garage computer.

The Antec P280 is an improvment of my P180 (very happy with this). While the Antec 300 is a go-to case for many builders.

Be sure to know what you are intending to put in your case - with attention to the length of PSUs and Video Cards.

I really don't Want to spend that much...I would say no more than $150 -$160...the one I mentioned is on sale right now for 20% off. I am using a LianLi Case right now something like a Lian Li PC60. Though it looks great and is a quality build it is very impractical. not a lot of room useless noisy fans which have tiny mounts that cant be removed and there is a LED light mount that is welded or soldered at the bottom that is in the way. Other that that I ahve no idea why someone would pay $200 for it. I got it used with a LGA 775 platform in it and I upgraded and kept the case.
