howdy :)

I'm thinking of modifying... well more like butchering my A380 case lol
I wanted to modify the rear panel so the PSU is at the bottom, rather than the top, but thinking about it, it would envolve quite a bit of work

I'd have to remove the rear panel, cut the PSU holder part off the top, weld that to the bottom, relocate the motherboard panel etc,

Ideally I think I need to sell my case and a new case is in order,

I'm after something that must be back inside and out,
decent cable tidy system like a motherboard panel with cable holes etc,
tool-less design and preferably ATX or only slightly bigger...

what are the suggestions please, pics too if you can :)

cheers
 
Depends what you prefer and if good styling matter as well as budget of course.
I would say the best case around the £60-£100 mark is probably the fractal design R3 in terms of performance user friendly and looks department.

Coolermaster CM-690 II Adv.

Great cable management, PSU at bottom, mostly tool-less and black in and out.

GOGO!! :D

I can second that, I just replaced my Thermaltake Kandalf LCS case with the coolermaster mentioned and it's a brilliant case, looks wise and practicality. I love the sata dock at the top, great for doing data recovery jobs.
