I have the P180 case at the moment and this is whats inside

Gigabyte GA-K8N- SLi
AMD 3700+ CPU
Asus 7900 GTX
2x80Gb Seagate in raid0
Antec Truepower 480 PSU
DVD-RW
Floppy Drive

The GF has kindly agreed to buy me a new case for chrimbo as this one is nice but just too heavy for LAN's
Budget is roughly £100
Black or Silver
Spacious
Light
Quiet
good airflow

dont like the look of the Akasa Eclipse
not too bothered about windows, lighting

What you'll want is a Lian Li PC7

Shame you don't like the Eclipse though, its an awesome case.

i may not like it but with my budget i may have to lean that way!

just out of interest as i dont mind the looks of the 900 i am concerned about the weight as i cant seem to find the wieght of this case. TBH anything under the hefty 16KG of the P180 would be a blessing.

personaly i think that Antec Nine Hundred is horrendous, reminds me of some kid with an vauxhall nova and loads of plastic crap slapped on it with some neon lights. i dont understand how OCUK thing its better than the akasa, i'm dissapointed.

Antec Sonata II
Lian-Li PC-7 PLUS Black

would be top of my list

do OCUK do the plus II of the PC7

The one that Ocuk ship usually comes with the 120mm intake and 120mm exhaust.

I know as that is what mine has.

antec sonata2 is nice, even better with a slight modding:

33L · 1 Nov 2006 at 17:47

the sonata is just that little too boring tbh! its definatly not as bad as some and i know you modded it for extra airflow - i just feel it will be a step down from the P180 i have got rather than something that is as good but just lighter.
