Cooler Master 932 Advanced or Antech DF-85?

This Christmas I will be upgrading my case. My current one won't fit the upgrades I plan to make over the next few months. My budget is around $150. I'm looking for a full tower and style is somewhat important to me. Anyways these are my two favorite that mix style with Performance/Space. Which one is the better choice?

Really, they are just personal preference. They all operate in their own way. The 932 will be superior in VGA and CPU cooling, while it lacks a decent window -- something you want to look on, especially if style is important to you.

I personally love the HAF series, they are just rugged cases, I just wish they had a proper window for the HAF X , I can't mod at all.

The Antec doesn't have alot of room for GPU's and it would barely house a 5970, however, with GPU's getting smaller and smaller (I personally prefer big GPU's lol, even if it sounds wrong), that shouldn't be an issue.

All in all, its down to personal preference, if you want the window or if you want the superior VGA cooling. I can personally say an upgrade to a HAF X decreased my temps by 10 degrees celcius, and really reduced my computer noise.
