hi guys.

I'm plannig to get a new case, this because I am really starting to feel the lack of space in my old(and cheap;) micro ATX case, and because I am going to upgrade to a larger GFX card too, in the near future. Actually, I'm afraid it won't fit.

But what case to get?
my criteria:
- As spacious as possible, ATX?
- PSU not necessary
- Good airflow
- Preferably silent, but needs to be able to GO FAST every once in a while
- bang for my buck! :)

I've been looking around for some time now, and I was thinking of one of these:

1: Antec three hundred (€35)
2: Thermaltake Soprano black + window (€59)
3: Cooler Master CM690II Advanced (€59 too)


The antec is cheap, yet looks good to me.
The thermaltake just looks awesome :love:
And the coller master just looks very functional.

so, which one(s) would you guys reccommend?
please give arguments!
 
The CM690II is the better quality unit i have one.I've built a 300 before and it's good but not as sturdy,hefty if you get what i mean.Lighter side panels.
But the Antec will be quieter imo both these units have good airflow.
I have a 902 with 5 case fans running on low and it's quieter then my 690II with 3 case fans.
The 300 uses the same fans more or less.
I think either way you won't be dissappointed.The CM690II is very roomy.
Newegg sells a premium version called the 300 Illusion which is very nice.
I wouldn't even consider a Thermaltake in this equation i don't think their fan quality is even close to CM and Antec.
