Cooler Master Case CM690 II Advanced
Awesome case!
Glad to see I am not the only one still using a Silverstone TJ07. It was a best buy for a long time (in technology terms) back then and apart from being rather large I cannot see it being replaced by me in the near future.
Enthoo pro after reading recommendations here. It was amazing to work in from an old NZXT lexa blackline, though there have been times in the past I was getting noise. Thinking of getting a Coolermaster H500 for zen 2 for better airflow.
I have a http://www.ldcooling.com/ v8 in red(bout 6yrs now ).. had a lian li before that for 10 yrs
more space than you need but solid build

Be Quiet! Silent Base 600. Awesomely quiet case with loads of fans. Just put a new Asus Prime Pro X470 in with an AMD 2700 CPU (replaced Intel 7700K). Already had a Be quiet! Dark Pro 4 cooler so all cores run at 4.1 at 1.4mv no problem and I might try 4.2 at 1.375 to see where that gets me. Running Vengence LPX ram at 3000mhz so all looks good.
Still using my Lian Li Tyr-X500 case, second build and zero intention of changing it. The only cases I've been tempted by in the last few years have been either Corsair or Phanteks cases, if they decided to do an all aluminium construction without the terrible tempered glass windows etc and used sound proofing in the side panels / usb-c connectors I'd be even more tempted. Alas most manufacturers seem to have gone down the RGB rabbit hole with show off cases..
Fractal Design Define R5 is my main pc case and it is one great case. I also have a Corsair obsidian 300 for my video server. That case holds 9 drives and had space for most anything you could want. Both enable easy service and cleaning. Over the years, I have come to look at these two brands first and foremost. I have never been disappointed by them as i have been by other name brand cases with all kinds of lights, bells and whatnot that i could care less about.
Corsair Carbide Spec 03. It was cheap, small-ish and has good airflow. Fits my new AM4 build perfectly.

Was looking at Case Labs SMA8 for next build but that isn't going to happen now.
I can't stand all these new cases that mainly have power/ports on the top where I can't reach them, They also don't have 5 1/4 bays for LCD monitoring of fans/temps and Blu Ray/DVD.
Cases now just seem like a rectangle with glass panels and flashy lights, Lost functionality in my opinion.
Fractal Design Arc Mini, despite the "Mini" it isn't really. Had it for nearly seven years now, copes very well and I love the removable filters for cleaning.
Silverstone FT01 - can't see any reason to change. Solidly built from aluminium, good cooling, virtually silent, looks great, no LED and brought up to date with a front bay for USB3 ports, card reader etc.
The second system is in another aluminium classic, the Lian Li PC-7 Plus.
I'd never buy a case made from plastic or without any 5.25" bays.

Codegen rack mounted case for music pc as it sits in a rack...
That's about it
Old puter - still good enuff till I save some pennies!
Coolermaster HAF X, Large good airflow & front loading hot swappable drive bays - perfect for cloning customers disks
