cases for grown ups?

I really like the design of the 900-2 and 1200. I don't like the 900, or any other bling bling cases, there's just something I seem to like about the 1200 and it's little brother.

Although my absolute favourite case would be the Lian Li X500 or X2000. Wayyyyy to expensive for me though...
 
wait a sec, ive just bought a silverstone case and im 17, yessss im grown up!

*ingores fact that i also purchased 4 red LED's*

PC-A09 has similar look but internally they aren't similar.
Most miditowers put PSU to hottest place above CPU.
(also creating heat trap to top of the case above level of PSU's fan... although aluminium's higher heat conduction might help in conducting that heat out from case)

Cool. I really like the silver button on the A70 though. I don't really have a need for a massive case unfortunately.
 
I have an antec 180 and it's about as non-flashy as you can get (apart from the rather pointless ramp/grill fan cover on the back).
It's essentially a big black box with a very small blue power led on the front.
 
I think the Akasa Omega counts. No lights, clean looks. Possible drawback is that it'll take 6 120m fans, which is probably not a grown up thing to want, in which case the Akasa Eclipse might be what you're after.
 
i'm the opposite, my last few cases have been lian li because of the quality, grown up feel. i'm now looking at "different", "unique" cases for my next build :)

You could try some of the Antec cases, possibly the Piano

Otherwise have a look at some of the HTPC cases. Ultimately what you might find you are happier with is finding somewhere for the case to be out of the way - at the end of the day apart from switching it on (with most modern sleep functions you can leave it on 24/7) or putting a disc in the drive (why bother when you have Daemon tools) you never need to touch it.

Clean keyboard, mouse and monitor - is the best look.
