Antec 900

I would like to keep the Apollo, looks nicer, but the fact that it only has 2 (1 optional) fans to the Antec's 6, is turning the tide to the Antec.

Also, for the motheboard, Abit IP35 Pro, or IX38?

I'd go with the Antec. Special $20 off savings if you order before the 31st.

If price isn't a consideration, then go with the Antec 900. It has Much better airflow and hence better cooling.

Antec 900 definitely.

Antec 900 awesome air flow

I think everybody makes too much noise about the number of fans...you can have 9 zillion fans, or a couple and they'll all gool as long as they are good and your case is decent.

I dunno, I think they're both ugly, but I never liked blue led fans or windows.

I bought a case for my recent build and chose the Antec 900. I've found that not only is the airflow good, the fans are so quiet I can't hear them. Yes I run them at low speed and not medium of high, but the airflow is good enough at low speed that I don't need to turn them at medium or high speed. So yes, I'd buy an Antec 900 again, unless I was to buy the newer Antec 1200, which looks even better.
