Was going to go with a LanLi but decided on the RAIDMAX SMILODON instead. NewEgg threw it on sale for 89.99 with a $20.00 rebate so it ends up $69.99 and it came with a 500w PS! I still switched the PS out for an Enermax Liberty 400w to be safe. This case rocks man! It has a front 120mm fan, 3 side fans (80mm), a removable HDD tray, fold out / removable motherboard side / tray that also keeps the cards installed in the MB, plexi window, and all tool less design! It is pretty quiet, but I did only use the 120mm front and 1 side 80mm fan. It has a pretty neat "side cooling bar" that sets a fan right over your video card area for extra cooling. Even though it's quiet, I think I'll look for a fanbus to control the fans and my cold cathodes...
Tilt out motherboard tray is really nice, I switched evrything rom my Aspire QPack into the new Smilodon in about 20 minutes and that included wrapping some wires. My mATX Biostar TForce fits with lots of room to spare...
Hmmmm, with all that room, maybe I need to fit a watercooler in there!
