It does not have to be an "HTPC" case, just HTPC friendly.
I am looking for a black case that will look good in the living room (nothing fancy) price is an issue. I would rather put my money inside the case if you know what I mean.
I am planning on a Micro ATX GA-73PVM-S2 or GA-73PVM-S2H
E2160 (read the TH article and can't wait to play a little)
I prefer water cooling - a single fan radiator should do (I've been able to tame an OC'ed 805D with a pretty small custom WC system - in a 690 with all of the room in the world)
For sanity sake I would like the case to be wire management friendly - even if I am the only one to look inside it.
This will be a Beyond TV link box, but will have to do some trans coding and capture work (and have a few cards in it).
