I'm looking for a nice case, to store my Opteron 146 and my 7800GT, so it has to be able to disperse heat. The front bezel must be silver, the rest of the case can be black or silver.
Good looks are a must.
I was thinking of getting the Lian Li PC-7 Plus, I Love the looks, and it performs well.
What do you guys suggest?
Be careful with the pc-7 plus. A few months ago when I was looking at getting one all the review samples seemed to have 2x 120mm fan mounts whilst those on sale had 1x120mm and 2x 80mm fan mounts. I'd check carefully what is stocked by the retailer is selling as these days i wouldn't recommend anything less than 2x 120mm fans. It was a while ago though so things may have changed and apart from this it looks a very nice case.
Yeh, I noticed.
Some places dont label the case correctly, so its a little difficult to trust them. The PC-7 SE Plus is the one with the 2x120mm fans, and the PC-7 Plus only have 1x120mm.
There is also the PC-7A Plus, that has 1x120mm and a fan at the top.
Great case i've just purchased from HERE
The picture doesnt do it justice at all, this thing is sexy!
Thanks but I like my cases to look nice and simple, like the Liam Li and older Coolermaster cases.Originally Posted by Hullz-Modz

Any other recommendations
Have you checked out any silverstone cases, their range are very nice.
see this for more info.
Hope this helps
Yup, the only Silverstone case i like has the motherboard upside down, and that means I cant buy it
It seems I have very similar taste in cases to you! Too many cases seem garish and... eurgh, for lack of a better word. I went for the Beantech Igloo, although that only has 3x80mm fans, which looks virtually identical.
"Well, there was your Uncle Tiberius who died wrapped in cabbage leaves but we assumed that was a freak accident."
Yup, I was looking at the beantechs too, put those 80mm put me off
what about this one has 3 120mm cooling fans,good reviews,and comes in just under £80

How about an Antec Lanboy. I've heard great things about them although it might be a little too flash for what you want
The Aurora isnt bad, but still a little too flashy for my taste. The old Coolermaster cases IMO are perfection, but I cant find any in great condition.
How about the new Antec P180 - nice simple design, door hiding all of your drives.
