I have been looking at cases so I can build my first self-built pc at Christmas and I cant find one I like. My specs are as follows:

CPU: Intel core i5
Graphics: Radeon HD 7950
Mobo: Asus Sabertooth z77
Memory: G. Skill Ripjaws x series 8 gigs
PSU: OCZ Modular 700w

I have been looking at the fractal design r4 but would like to hear some suggestions. My budget is $150 but I will go over if it is an extremely good purchase. I want to put LEDs in and make it look nice as well. I would like a no-door case but if it looks nice enough the door will be fine.

If being quiet is important i can fully recommend the fractal design R4, it will raise your temps by an average of around 5c though unless you put in additional fans...but the lack of noise is worth it.
