XBLADE when I bought it initially

Once you've sprayed the internals all black, you can't beat the TJ07. Have to say though that it is absolutely designed from the ground up for a water cooling solution. My next case will be the same one I've got now

[atomictom]

Gotta say, love my Sharkoon T28 in Blue.

great price for a case that's solid that's had attention to detail like the mobo tray being blue as well as the expansion slot covers and 2 x 120mm front fans to blow over my busy hard drives while a filter protects dust from clogging up my bottom mounted PSU.

Just a all-round good-un!!

Corsair Graphite 600T

Coolermaster ATC-710-GX1. Timeless black front aluminum panel that I have grafted to a black Chieftec Aegis case (they still do cases in 1mm steel)and this is what I continue to use. Also must mention Antec Solo first edition.

lian-li pc70 .. style space and you can hack it to bits ..and yes i still have it ..13 yrs old now maybe more ..

You could have typed that for me man!
Thats exactly what I was going to say

Still using my globalwin 802. Was quite good in its day, sadly left in the dust by modern designs and as ugly as sin

I would say the corsair 800D. Brought innovation, quality, cooling and ease of use to the masses...despite weighing 10Kg and a hefty price tag.

<3 my Bitfenix Prodigy! ...having a custom watercooling loop with 54mm 240 radiator in a mini-ITX case is just awesome ...my 800D can't fit under my desk...this little baby fits on it!!! ...high end gear in a small package

I have a CM 201 Black Widow, it looks good, well made, but has fallen behind time functionality wise (too narrow for taller heatsink, fairly standard layout wise, doesn't come with thumbscrews for drive bays if I remember correctly). So my vote will have to go to the Antec P182. That said, that case is also quite a couple of years old, so for all I know it may be a little outdated by 2012 standard too. But I like the emphasis on noise reduction, separate compartments for PSUs and removable trays for HD. Not the most eye catching case, but I don't care about that nowadays (also on the heavy side, but that's no biggie as I've never taken my desktop to LAN parties).

Silverstone tj08e. Superb cooling in a relatively small form factor

[SpeedyJDK]

Amiga 4000T Tower

[The Hand]

Coolermaster Praetorian case (Brushed aluminum style)

globalwin 802 - hellish practical in it's day

Antec solo II - current favourite (mainly because PCworld cleared stock at £49 otherwise overpriced)

Nanoxia Deep Silence I, not perfect but damn close. Anand have reviewed it. Subdued but fairly elegant stylings, a lot of fan mounts, many drive mounts, and effective "silencing".

I would have bought one, but I also plumped for an Antec Solo II thanks to PC World's stock clearance. I'm not fond of the black, cable routing with a modular PSU is tricky to keep "sane", the upturned PSU vent reveals the age of the fan in my Corsair HX520W... but it's a damned good case at that price, with excellent hard disk mounting! Power button is a concern though...

Chieftec Dragon. Solid, great for modding and understated looks.
