Need recommendations for stylish new case!!

Although I have the 902, I would deffo go for another case now If I had the choice,
The fact I cant put a side fan on because of my cooler is annoying,
No vent for power supply fan when its facin down into the case,
Hard drives are facing the 'old' way a lot easier when they are facing out of the case,
No hole in motherboard tray for backplate (i had to remove my motherboard to fit cooler)
Switches for the top and back exhaust fans are on the back of the case so I have to climb under my table to change their speed.

Where in dub ya from anyway?

Hmm I presume this is the same for the 1200!!

I am a northsider!! :eek:
 
I was between the antec 1200 and haf 932

I went for the antec since it has dust filters and my case sits on the floor so a lot of dust will be sucked in without the filters.

I like the look of the antec, as all I had before were 'serious' cases... enver had a gaming case and it looks really good at night tbh
 
I have the P182SE - here's some shameless pimpage from an old photo:

What exactly is wrong with the side panel? These things are built very well. I once had a problem getting the panel back on, but it was due to the thumbscrew on the lower HDD cage not being the right one. The one provided is low in height, but normal ones will prevent the side from going back on. I'd check that first if I were you, the P182 is great!
 
I don't touch the shiny bits much, then wipe off any fingerprints that appear. It still looks like new. You get a cloth with it actually.
 
I've found my Lancool K62 to be a very good case, but its probably more functional than it is stylish. If you want style i wouldn't look at anything other than lian li to be honest.
 
So Far....

So this is list of cases I have been looking at so far, starting with the most expensive!

Thanks for your suggestions and advice so far.

Feel free to add more suggestions!! :thumbsup:

you should l.ook at the fractal range there is sopme new models coming soon and they are amazing in boht performance and styling so if you want to overclock in the future it would easily cope and the new models are going to a bigger more like the 1200 size from what i hear so if need big it would cope but the r2 i have and it is amazing
