Have decided on my Spec for my Pc but still strugling with Case. Its gonna be sitting in my room so need a quiet PC and a decent looking one. My budget for the case is £100. Here is the spec

- Mitsumi FA 404M 7in1 USB 2.0 Floppy & Media Drive - Black
- 512MB XFX 7950GT XXX, PCI-E (x16), Mem 1600MHz, GPU 610MHz, 24 Pipes, Dual DVI/HDTV - totally silent
- 2 x Sony AW-G170AB2 18x DVD±RW x12 Ram Dual Layer DVD-Writer - (Black) OEM
- GeIL 2GB (2x1GB) PC6400C4 800MHz Ultra Low Latency DDR2 Dual Channel Kit (GX22GB6400UDC)
- Intel Core 2 DUO E6600 "LGA775 Conroe" 2.40GHz (1066FSB) - OEM
- Arctic Silver 5 Thermal Compound (3.5g)
- Scythe Ninja Plus Rev.B Heatpipe CPU Cooler - very quiet
- Gigabyte GA_965P_DS3 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard
- Seasonic S12 600W Silent ATX2.0 Power Supply - hopefully quiet
- 2 x Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 320GB ST3320620AS SATA-II 16MB Cache - OEM - hopefully quit quiet


My current PC has perforated holes all along it (like the apple ones) and this means that it gets very dusty and its noisy. I dont really want neon lights either...they just bug me after a while.

Now i know that ill get shot down for this but i just dont like the Akasa cases...they look crap. They may be good performers but they look crap and if im spending £100 on a case i want it to look good.

So...here are some options...i prefer black cases and i also prefer ones without doors. Can never be bothered opening the door 20 times a day when i wanna use a dvd drive

Antek P180b - Has a door
Antek Nine Hundred Gaming Case - but has holes
CoolerMaster Mystique 632 Black Aluminum - kind of doors

Let me know what you think or suggest other ones

Cheers.

Isnt it perforated on the top and sides?

I just dont want it getting really dusty like my current one. Had to take the hoover to it the other day

EDIT - Quite like that Lian-Li case but keep the ideas coming.
