New Case to replace aging Lian Li PC Plus II.

[gpherber]

Looking for a new case to replace my current one. Needs to have great cable management, preferably aluminium (or any other metal, just not plastic) and be quiet.

The Corsair 650D looks great, but the front connections, look very cheap and tacky. Anyone have any better suggestions?

Current system is a Q6600 Air Cooled with Zalman CNPS9900A-LED, Asrock P45XE (ATX), 3 x HDD, 1 DVD-RW in a Lian Li PC Plus II. Looking at moving to water-cooling and adding an SSD in the future.

Thanks
Gaz

I have a 650d and i love it. Doesnt feel or look tacky to me

Its just the connectors at the top on the front, the rest looks fantastic. As I always have my mini bluetooth dongle and mouse micro receiver plugged in the front (not enough signal for wireless keyboard if they're plugged in the back), I'd see them all the time unless they will fit behind the flap when its closed (unlikely).

How loud is the case? as at the moment im using air cooling, current case was great when i got it, but rattles a fair bit now (mainly the clip on front).

Thanks
