Ok guys I would appreciate some input on the cases I have narrowed myself down too.

Lian Li PC7B Plus2
Antec 900
TT Armor Junior

About $50 more for these two.
Antec P180
Antec P182

Akasa Eclipse is impossible to find here.

Ok so the PC 7 is obviously a good choice, its only $99 too.

I also thought that the P180 and P182 were great cases as well?

I am sure the Sonata 3 is good, very quiet but also a little hot, thats my problem with the Sonata 2.

I am going to buy a new case today but am still torn between the Lian Li, Antec 900 and Antec P182. I want excellent cooling as my computer den has no windows, so its gets rather hot.

I went with the Antec 900 in the end as cooling is very important and this case seems to be very good for that. I have added 2x120mm Noctua fans, one at the back instean of the Antec fan and one inside on the optional mount to cool my 8800GTS. All of the case fans are set to low and the cpu is idling at 39c, in my Sonata it was 49c so I would say that this is a definate improvement.

I would hardly say it was a terrible choice seeing as my temps have dropped so much.
