Shows the case with a couple more fans, running with the bad-boys, and beating them.

The Lian Li Tyr PC-X500 is very nice:

Passively cooled and overclocked Core i7 920 FTW!!
It is "slightly" expensive though:

The fractal is nice
I'd also look at the CM 690 II (not rev2) more expensive but it does have some good improvements over the original.

Since we're posting up "expensive" suggestions, i really like this one:

I have to say I'm a bit of a sucker for the aluminium cases. They add nothing to the cooling ability of the case but they sure do look good
Now if that Fractal design case was aluminium.....
I just recased my machine from an Antec Sonata to this

I really like it, built a PC for a friend last year using one of these as he wanted a small machine but didnt want to stretch to Shuttle prices.
I liked the case so changed my P5Q-E to a Maximum Gene II thing and all is well, usual Antec build quality...
The Lian-Li PC-P50 is also quite nice too:

It is cheaper than the Lian Li Tyr PC-X500 though:
