Hold on just a second!

Ketsuri - Please list the components you will be installing in the case. Depending on your choice of components there may be a problem with some of the cases that were recommended. One must be careful with case and component dimensions.

Get a Corsair Obsidian 800D, everything fits in that cavernous box.

An amazing case, amazing style, amazing features, amazing cooling, and amazing quietness.

A good review (note that it is a full tower, they got that wrong)

got this for my HTPC (i need a lot of HDD's), and it's big, pretty cheap and can hold a lot of fans

+! JohnnyLucky, list the components

 

[Ketsurui]

Well its a new build so hear are the new parts i plan on using.

MOBO: Asus P6X58D Premium
PSU: Enermax Revolution 85+
Core: I7 920
Heat Sink: CM V8
RAM: G-Skill Rip Jaw
ODD: Samsung 22x DVD/DV-R
GPU: (2x) ATI Radeon 5870 Saphire
HDD: (2x) WD Black Caviar 500gb
Have plans to implement a watercooling system in future as well as some SSD's

 

[JohnnyLucky]

OK!

Going down the list I see you want a Coolermaster V8 cpu heatsink. It is a 160mm tall tower style heatsink. You will need a case that is at least 204mm (8 inches) wide to accomodate the heatsink.

Next I see two ATI Radeon HD 5870 video cards. Those cards are 280mm (11 inches long. The cards also need a little more space for the power cable connections. Because of drive cages mounted in the front of the case you will need a case that is at least 508mm (20inches) in length from front to back. Longer would be even better.

Looking at your build it appears as if you are a gamer. Looks like you might want a gaming case.

Coolermaster HAF 932 has excellent ventilation, airflow, cooling, and interior space:

The Coolermaster Storm Sniper is another large gaming case that is popular:

The Lian Li / Lancool Dragon Lord is a little smaller but can still accomodate you components:

Here's a better look at the Dragon Lord:

Well i actually have the HAF 932. I am actually trying to sell it to get a different one im not particularly fond of it. I wanted something with a window good air flow and black all the way through. So i was looking at the Corsair Case it looks nice wonderful design but the question is air flow. Also it might force me to upgrade to water cooling a lot sooner because of the lack of vents and fans.

The Corsair has OK airflow but is great for water cooling.

Here is a good video review if you haven't seen it already:
