I was wiondering what you guys think

I have a 2nd machine and i need to upgrade the Case

My main machine has a Lancool K62 which I love but I cant get the case anymore anywhere it seems


So I am left with the option of getting the Vanilla K58 without window as I cant get a windowed side panel anywhere
or
Getting Xigmatek Utgard and getting a windowed Side Panel


Any opinions you have on these cases would be great

I had a look at the Utgard several months ago first hand as I was looking for a similar case to the K62 as stock everywhere was pretty low.
The Xigmatek is a nice case, and I personally loved the orange and black colour scheme, but some parts of the case did feel a little cheap and flimsy, for example the PCI retention clips actually moved around quite a bit, even when "secured", but other than that the case did seem pretty solid. There's some good cooling potential and quite a bit of room to work with as well, but you might want to check the spacing between the rear of the case and the drive bays just to make sure that newer GPU's will fit in ;)
 
Have you looked at the Cubitek Tattoo cases? The Pro and Fire versions come with windowed side panels, around the same price as the Utgard on OCUK.
