    The Tsunami is a great case, but it's made by thermaltake so cooling was first in mind over noise level. Just replace the stock fans with something a tad quieter and it's superb.

    If you can spend the money, I'd for for an akasa Eclipse - Removable motherboard tray is fantastic, 2x 120mm fans, one of which is right in front of the harddisk caddy and the case is huge - enough room for 2 seperate watercooling systems, easy.

    I think it looks sweet too

    Try checking ebay, there are some good ones there - that's where i got mine. Bear in mind though, you get what you pay for. My case was £25 with blue LCD display at the front, but the build quality is pretty poor. Still at least it looks good and I have a spare 300w psu
