Can't decide between these 2 cases. I'm leaning towards the Mirage as it seems to get far fewer complaints than the P180, which I notice some people have some real gripes with.

Basically, I want a case with a door, as personally I just like that clean look. I also want good cooling (I know a door may hinder that slightly, but I can live with that), and I also want quiet. From what I've read, these 2 cases seem to offer all of the above - unless there is another I should consider? I did notice the Lian Li S80, but I can't really justify that price. The Antec 900 seems good, but no door and I'm not convinced it will be that quiet. Are there any cases just around the corner worth waiting for?

I'll be putting a 8800GTX in there, so it needs to have the room.

Any advice much appreciated. Thanks... :)

The Eclipse/Mirage is an awesome case and far better quality and design than the P180.
Yup, that's what I was thinking. :) Have yet to hear a serious complaint about the Mirage. Seems a great all rounder.

The only other case which has caught my eye is the Lian Li V1100, but at half as much again, I'm really not sure I can justify that extra cost when the Mirage seems such a winner.
