I currently have an Azza Spartan 102E (http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0358279) and want to upgrade to a bigger case. Right now my V6GT cpu cooler is touching the side panel, I can barely close the case because there isn't adequate space to plug in my hard drives so it's pushing the tray out, my 6950 Flex is taking up half the room in my case, so I can't even use a cd drive, and my non-modular GS-800 power supply has a bundle of cords just sitting in the bottom of my case. I am a cable management maniac so that's driving me insane. I have a pretty small limit, around $125-$150 and was looking at the Rosewill Thor v2 white edition (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811147158) until I was wandering around in microcenter and saw the Corsiar 500R (http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0369124) which I like a lot also. Which would you choose in my situation? Thanks to everyone in advance!

the Rosewill is better since it has more room in the case BUT its not that much bigger than
the corsiar 500r
so if you want space get the Rosewill, unless you want to save some money go get the 500r

EDIT: just noticed the 500R is SMALLER than your current case so i would get the Rosewill

I was leaning towards the Thor. Which has better cable management? Like, superior grommet spacing, space behind the motherboard tray, things like that. That's a big concern for me.
