Buying case for air cooled Atx build. Many cases seem to have poorly ventilated or blocked front/face. I'm guessing because water cooled so popular?...I want tempered glass sturdy metal case with very good airflow setup -don't mind buying extra fans) two I like are:

1: The Enthoo Pro M tempered g

Very popular, functional, 135$ cdn looks great (just wish the front was more like a cooler master solid mesh...but want TG)
Lots of reviews can see product well on videos, I don't need many storage options just a sdd (maybe blue ray burner)

2: Azza inferno 310

Not as popular but seems like good pc game case maker. Product
Looks solid good airflow can't tell about chassis materials and this is so new and limited in popularity so no video or written reviews ($125 with 25$ mail in rebate) No way for me to see this case what does everyone think

1. I've got this one. I got it on sale at canadacomputers for $100. So check it and ncix both in case they have discounts. I can recommend it, very roomy, will accommodate any cooling, liquid or air that you throw at it, and easy to work with and quite cool.

2. Never seen it so can't really tell anything about it.

Here are some airflow friendly alternatives though if you want choice:

Corsair's spec series:

Their air series is good too but far too expensive and has flaws.
Fractal's new meshify C, also their focus series:

Cooler master's mastercase pro 5:
http://www.coolermaster.com/case/mid-tower/mastercase-5/ but this one get pricey due to modularity options.
Silverstone's primera series (PM01):
http://www.silverstonetek.com/product_case.php?tno=0&case=c_tower&area=en
For this one has some complaints about liquid cooler fitting up top but for air cooling it's a great case.
NZXT has noctis 450 which has partially covered front but on reviews does very well cooling performance wise:

Phanteks I'm assuming you already perused. There's others but that should give you some options.

My be quiet! silent base 800 is pretty sweet.

First of all it comes with 3 be quiet fans which I was surprised are some of the best fans made. Even better than Noctua. It has 2x 140mm Silent Wings fans in front and a 120mm in back. be quiet fans are pretty expensive so the case is expensive too. I have also added a bottom fan and 2 on top, and a giant Thermalright Macho rev B CPU cooler.

The case is very quiet and I have the fans set to min-spin.
