I was planning on gettin the aspire case (in my sig) but i realized i have a few extra dollars now and i was looking for some good recommendations on some good look cases. budget max is about 130 for the case...and i dotn want a case bundle that includes a power supply or antyhing else

Thanx
 
My favorites:

Antec P180
NZXT Lexa
Aspire X-Navigator

All of these besides the X-Navigator do not have a PSU. However, if you want to spend the extra 20 bucks you can get that case. The PSU in it is pretty good. 34A on the 12V rail.
 
antec p180 is a great choice. read the reviews on newegg. dont worry about the people that say the door is cheap because it isnt. its actually very nice. great cooling to. it has all 120mm fans instead of 80s. one on top one in back and one on the bottom of the case in the seperate PSU section of the case. That one is supposed to create a wind tunnel to cool the psu. it also has the ability to add a fan where the hdd's are located. it also has another place to put a fan. there is some plastic air duct thing that when you put a fan in it it will blow air right onto the gfx card. great case + price
 
p180 is a blinder and a real dream to work with too. Lot of thought has been put into it to make each part just right. The original door problem has been solved so that isnt even an issue anymore.

As said above:

The psu is in a seperate chamber with its own dedicated 120mm fan, psu provides a lot of heat to a case so by seperating it you reduce the overall heat of air in the case straight away.

2 X 120mm are located around the area of where the cpu will be located so again keeps it cooler.

The VGA duct can be kept for extra cooling over the gfx card but can also be easily removed if you dont like it.

google it and have a look, mine is silent and and with stock cooling the temps are nice and low


Cant lose with this one, I'm loving mine!

The p180 is ok but i want something a little more flashy (i hope i dont soudn lilke a fag there) but those apollos are nasty!!! especially in black!! Il probably get one of those if it comes to tiger or newegg soon enough
 
so in a case, you look for more form rather than function? not to patronize, i'm asking a serious question to narrow down your choices.
