I currently have a NZXT Lexa Blackline and it's alright I guess. Does the box, is quiet enough and takes all my kit etc but it's starting to show it's age. There's nothing really wrong with it but it dioesn't have cutouts for hiding cables behind the motherboard tray for example and I only just managed to get the side panel on when i fitted my Tranquillo CPU cooler for example so I was thinking of a new case to go along with the GTX 670 I plan on buying in July or August.
The only thing is, I've decided it CANNOT be black. Anything but black. The Pink NZXT Phantom on TWO looks fab to my mind but I think the pink might not be what I'm after in 6 months time once the fad has worn off. The white and blue and white and purple also look great but they don't have flat tops and I like a case to have a flat top so i can put things on top like my glass when i'm having a drink etc so as much as I like them they won't do the job.
Budget £100 maximum. Don't want a full tower case as it'll be too big I think. Other than that I'm open to suggestion. If I ever do consider watercooling (and it's not particularly likely but good to keep your options open!) it would probably be only with an enclosed CPU cooler like the Corsair H60/80/100 so it doesn't have to be absolutely massive, hence no real desire for a full tower case.
2 Hard Disks, 1 SSD and 2 Optical drives so most cases should fit all that inside easily enough.
