Full tower choice: pc-p80, pc-a77f, 800D

Hi, I'm planning to change my pc case, but I can't decide which to choose...
I've got 3 cases in my mind which look ideal.
1. Lian li Pc-A77f
2. Lian li Pc-P80
3. Corsair 800D

I'll be using the Asus R3E and 2 Ati HD 5970 with Arctic Accelero Xtreme 5970 HS (3 pci-e slots)
I would prefer Cooling over Cable mangement over look over price.

Thx

with 2 ATI5970, I would definitely go with the P80.

Also, with this kind of investment, you should consider water cooling.

The ATI radeon HD 5970 video cards are 12.5 inches long. Add another one half inch for PCI-e power cable connections. You'll need a case that is extra long from front to back.

Here are cases that will accomodate the cards:

Cooler Master’s HAF 932
Cooler Master’s CM 690
Cooler Master’s Stacker
SilverStone’s Raven RV02
Thermaltake’s Element V

So which one should i choose?

I have the Coolermaster HAF 932 which turned out to be a very popular case with gamers. It is a huge beast. Ventilation, airflow, and cooling are excellent even with the stock cooling fans.

Sometimes case selection is a matter of personal preference.
