Hiper Anubis is what I have. Maybe not better, but it's a damned good case, and kinda sexeh lookin too.

Easy to open & work in?

I'm not being picky...well, i am being picky, but for the right reasons

just go for a good old Antec 300
i've recently just ordered one, and for the money it's awesome.
i've read countless reviews on it and it's 1 of the best cases i've heard about, review-wise.
sure, it's not gonna be the coolest case, or the quietest case, but the money you save could be used to upgrade all the cooling components inside the case to make them quieter and better.
or if you want near silence, what about the Antec P182?
they're pretty big, but omg, they're quiet
I would say the P182 or the coolermaster CM-690.
The HAF looks like a dust bowl.
Anyone know the cheapest place a P182 (standard edition, no fancy decals either) can be had?
That's what I was looking at but it includes american sites and quite a few retailers I've never heard of. I think it'll have to be from ebuyer. £92.44 including delivery. More than I want to pay but not too bad I suppose.
£92.70 from Scan which means you also get the Scan-Hexus free next day delivery aswell
much better than eBuyer's Super Saver delivery.

The main priority would be better airflow and room, so a slightly larger case is ok with me. Good looks is what puts me of the HAF to be honest. Low noise would be nice too as it will be in my bedroom although it does not need to be silent.
Antec 1200
Certainly ticks air flow and room. Noise isn't bad either afaik
I'd prioritise noise a little higher and go for the P182.
isn't this case nearer the £115~£120 mark aswell, anyway?
it's a good case for cooling and space, and it looks very nice
but i'd rather save £30 and get the P182, the difference you'll notice in temperatures won't justify the sacrifice in noise.
Check out the host of Lian Li cases newly added to Scan plenty to pick from for less than £100 and they all look fantastic, and will have build quality which surpasses most of the competition at that price point.
Why are they so many haters of the 1200? Envious?
If you include me (which you shouldn't), that makes... 2 thus far lol
It's not a bad case by any means and lord knows with the amount of HDD's you have it's down right necessary.
