Alright, just doing this quickly before i go to bed, as im buying in the morning.

I've looked at the Silverstone TJ09, and the Antec 1200.

I need a good airflow system, as I'll be crossfiring, and have about 5 HDD's. Currently using a Q6600 that i'll be overclocking to about 3.6 gigahertz.

Any suggestions between the 2 cases or maybe a better one?

Also another question, whats a really good cpu heatsink for a Q6600.

I'm kind of biased on this but I have the 1200 and it's the greatest case I ever had. Mind you it's not perfect but for my needs it is great.

Maybe you should read some reviews on both cases you're looking at and after if you have questions come back and we'll try to answer from our experiences.

Silverstone temjin is an awesome case. If money is not an issue i'd go the liquid cooling route, esp if you want half-decent temps @ 3.6.

NZXT Tempest is a great case. Moves lots of air and hold up to 8 HDDs. Pretty amazing for a case that cheap (100$). It can hold tri sli with no problem, and R700 in CF too. There's no need to get something more expensive than that! unless you go watercooling.
