Silverstone FT02 is my favourite case. Whats your budget?

@fergie

Dont want to spend to much but can go up to 80-90 euros

corsair 600t se white, recently built in this case and its soooo sweet and the largest "mid" tower case ever, it made my df-86 look small.

is also a dream to biuld in with amazing case management and a very clinical style

------------------------------ If you found a post usefull its always nice to leave a little feedback :-)

im not sure now

HAF 912 Plus 68Euro

VS

Corsair Carbide 500R 95 Euro ..

Edit : I found another 2 cases that are my decision's

Elite 430 ; NXZT 210 Elite ;Ante3c Three Hundred ; Thermaltake V4

Whic of these are better . 210 is 5 euro cheaper than 430 .

The rest of the money went to the mobo

Depending on your budget I would highly recommend the Thermaltake Level 10 GT Snow Edition. Amazing look, nice cable management built into the case, nice and large, multi-color LED, quick swap HD bays.

The case I used before I swapped to the Level 10 GT was the Coolermaster HAF 932 which was also an excellent case, I would recommend that one also however I dont think anything beats the Level 10 GT as far as unique look!

His stated budget is 80-90 euros...that Level 10 definitely is a budget buster.

Y ur right lvl 10 gt is 258 Euro . I will never buy such an expensive case. Better to get Mega PC hardware than that .

All the suggestions on the table are fair and within your budget. What we can't know is your personal preferences on appearance of the case. Which one looks best to you?

@Malmental thats a hard choice

@rugger
They both look good to me thats the problem !If 1 of them was cheaper i would buy that but they have the same price .

Also there is silencio 550
I like the external sata dock but that front door seems weird.Also it is called silenico but it just lowers down the noise by 1~2 Db acording to reviews.

You're the first person that's actually responded to that in a while! I wonder how many people actually look it up...

I like simple, functional, and quiet. In that list of four I would go for the Carbide 400R.

To make it even more confusing for you, I'll throw a couple of other options out there. I really like Fractal Define R3 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6811352013 or the Antec P280 for a few dollars more. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 80%20antec

For a little less, I like the Bitfenix Outlaw: http://www.anandtech.com/show/5224 [...] mean-cheap

if push comes to shove then there is always the:
Antec 300 Illusion

not sure about the pricing over in UK (non US).
