So i would go with Phantom 410.

R4 for me !

Thanks for the replies. I'll probably end up going with the windowed R4. For what it's worth they both cost the same here in Canada so cost isn't a consideration. The dust issue really is important for me and the more I look in to it, the Define is looking better and better.

Not so sure about the windowed version. I've perused multiple forums and many of posts from people who got the windowed version say they would have elected to go the unwindowed route because dust tends to really be attracted to the window panel and sticks to it. Just something I read.

I'm thinking of getting the R4 myself but my question is, can anybody recommend a good value PSU for it? Any suggestions? p.s. If I go dual SLI, it will probably be further down the line and not sometime really soon. Here are my components at the moment:

Intel Core i5 3570k Ivy Bridge 3.4GHz LGA 1155 77W Quad-Core HD Graphics 4000

with a single ASUS GTX660-DC2O-2GD5 GeForce GTX 660 2GB 192-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

an ASUS P8Z77-V LK LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard with UEFI BIOS

NZXT Havik 140 CPU Cool Air Cool, dual 140mm fan

Well here it is . XFX 650W Pro Core Edition !

A best that delivers up to 815W if needed.

Good Luck

Sorry for the majorly delayed response. Thanks for all of the advice. I ended up going with the R4 and am glad I did. I absolutely love this case.

I have the 410, and bought a set of filters for it. http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=20835

I love the look of this case, and only use the front and side ones, and to me the look was the deciding factor as it is in a pretty prominent position in my room.
