    I dunno I'm really digging this case over the ANTEC because of the black internals. Both are good cases but after my last 10 cases being ANTEC I wouldn't mind trying a Cooler Master case as I use their 120MM fans in my current ANTEC and they work great.

    Yes #3. #2 collects cases. That makes him cool.

    I switched to Cooler Master.
    I own the full tower and it is a fantasic case.
    Recommend them strongly.

    lol... that was over the last 10 years sguy2130 Smile I usually give my old computers to family members when I build a new rig.

    I still remember my first or second Antec was a 1080 which was nearly 40LBS which I bought at a local CompUSA before they became CompUSSR. Ironically like the USSR they went bankrupt Smile~

    The 10(n)0 series Antecs were really nice a few years back, come to think of it the most I've ever paid for a case is $40 for the Chen Ming branded aluminum version of an Antec 1040. Well I paid more for others before a rebate, but the best deal on cases is to go down to a not very busy local mom-n-pop computer shop.

    They may have their entire storage racks filled with abandoned OEM cases when a customer has a motherboard fail and realizes it's too expensive to have a shop do the repair vs buying a new Dell. I have over 10 cases by getting some of those at $5 or $10 a pop, and worst comes to worst when I upgrade parts in a better system I can rebuild the old system in the OEM case and give or sell it to someone.

    Some of the older ones, the first generation or two after they went from beige and white to grey, silver or black, may need a fan hole cut out for better ventilation, and some need the all-in-one front panel connector block replaced with individual plastic connectors but shops are usually throwing those front panel leads away in the really ancient system cases and will just give them to you for free.

    A lot of them are only mATX, but with so much integrated on motherboards these days that may be all you need.
