What case do you currently have?

What are you looking for, silence, cooling performance, certain features or just style?

£100 budget?
 
From a water cooler's point of view, the C70 would be my pick. The modular HDD cases allow you to move the drives to fix 2x240mm rads in the top and front.

Con for the C70 is I'm not a big fan of the grilles in that side window. Kind of spoils it I think.

Can't comment much on the CM as I've not done much reading/research into the case.
 
Check out what Fractal Design has to offer, Define R4 and Arc Midi R2 :)
Both have smoked windows without the tacky grills.
Air/WC=Arc Midi R2
Looks/Silent=Define R4
 
Defiantly take a look at the fractal cases, Ordered a C70 my self but ended up returning it.

Got it out the box and just didn't like the fan grills on the side panel along with the bulky size. Also the loop clips that hold on the side panels aren't that strong just bent metal wire in a loop when i removed the second side panel the clip that secures it popped out.

Ended up going with the 350d instead and although its smaller size. It looks great on the desk with a nice clean window, quality case not so much of a gimmick as the c70. Ton of cooling options too, getting ready to add a xspc water loop into it soon.
