Hi,

I am building a new computer soon and deciding between Mid Tower ATX and Full Tower ATX. I am looking for a case that has good air flow, relatively silent(so I can watch a movie or tv without being distracted) and has looks classy. I am trying to get away from the purely black or white cases. So far here is the cases I've narrowed it down to. I would be interested to hear suggestions for which case you think would be best, even if it's not on the list.

Thank you,

Allan

You should check the Cooler Master cases, one listed in first link. They have mesh front panels, and just seems... so pourous, should let air right through. :p

If quiet is your thing then the Antec P180 is a good choice.

Out of the 10 or so mentioned it's the 2nd least expensive at $129.
Mine is very quiet.
It has good air flow.
It looks really nice.

It's a great case for less money then the others.
