I'm gonna upgrade my case from mid tower to full tower and i selected two cases which i consider buying.As far as i know;
Thermaltake-----------------------------------------------Coolermaster
6 HDD slots (3,5")----------------------------------------5 HDD slots (3,5")
High and low fan controls------------------------------
H x W x D = 567.9 x 237.0 x 581.6 mm--------------599 x 230 x 550 mm
CPU cooler limit = 180mm------------------------------190mm
VGA limit = 330mm---------------------------------------342mm
Can have 2 12cm fan in front--------------------------Only 20cm in front
Can have 12cm bottom intake fan--------------------No bottom fan
Material = SECC------------------------------------------Steel, mesh, polymer
Has feets to lift the case--------------------------------
Price = 173$-----------------------------------------------229$

What i have;
AMD FX-8150
Coolermaster X6
ASUS 7950 DCII
ASUS M5A99FX PRO R2.0
3, 3,5" HDD- 1, SSD
2, 12 cm fans ( i have to buy 20cm not matter what i get but if i get thermaltake then i don't have to get it right away)

So looking at these specs Thermaltake has more features and it is cheaper but a little smaller.And i would go for it but i have a little concern about the price tags
So Thermaltake uses SECC but cooler master uses Steel, mesh, polymer and it is a bit bigger.
Does it really justify the price tag compared to Thermaltake?
And what do you think i should get?
I mean should i get the features or if it is more quality product should i get Coolermaster?

From what i can see Thermaltake should have a better airflow from the outside look because it has an extra bottom fan but you may be right because 942 has covers inside the case to direct the air.So maybe if someone with more knowledge could explain it?

I should have added to my post that in my opinion vga limit has enough space for monster vga cards which i cannot afford at the moment so that will be useless unless in the future they make bigger cards, which i highly doubt because any bigger than the current vga cards would be impractical.And i don't think i'll change my cpu cooler except if it is liquid cooler and in that case space will be useless too.So my only concern is the airflow.
I know coolermaster is a quality brand but 56$ (which you can think the double of this price 112 our currency is the half of usd) difference doesn't seem to justify it for me if i don't see a detailed explanation of why it has better airflow
