the lian li v series are incredibly nice, really solid and good cooling, if i ever feel the need to change from my a05b it'll be to something like this.

Antec 1200 is always an option

What are the requirements like size limit etc?

 

[kermy91]

Well i don't really have any size requirments just looking for a big case which looks good.

Antec 1200

 

[vincent1989]

Antec 1200 is never an option

fixed, and the same goes for any of the antec cases (and thermaltack)

and yes, the silverstone is nice as well

Antec 1200 fails almost as much as the 900, despite being a big case a large gfx card would be really close to the hard drives. Lian Li PC-A71 beats it all round especially on looks.

Lian Li A70 or A71

Lot of space and device bays and components won't block access to each others if you later add/change HDDs or optical drives.

HAF 932, would be a very good choice, good airflow/tonnes of space etc.

That's bling-bling. This is Stacker:

Besides bling eats sapce away and makes it small.
(HAF again looks as good as magpie's nest)

Would def say lian li too, trust me once you've had one, you'll never go back to antecs/coolermasters!

well atm im using sum jeantech case so anything will be better i think.

Depends on your taste. Look through the cases and if you notice one you like, search for some reviews and opinions then decide if you want it. If not, keep looking. Some people like lights and bling on the Antecs, some people like the plain, sleek brushed-aluminium Lian Li's. It seems most people want (note - want ) a TJ07.

I personally like the Antec 902. Not sure why, maybe it's because I've always used plain cases and want something different. I'm warming to Lian Li's (B25B specifically), but I only really like the £160+ ones, which are out of my budget.

Lian li B25, check my previous posts for pics

yes the TJ07 looks amazing but sadly out of my price range

This is a cracking case, just moved from a Lian-li PC60 Plus II, and although its not a full tower case, its a lot more roomier, than the PC60.

Here's a good review of it. And its £166.
