OK, So I have about £100 to spend (spent all the rest) and want to get a new case. I currently have a Fractal Design R3 thing, not the most well build case, but it has served me well.

I want the new case be quiet like my Fractal and also need the room for my 5 HDD's and Blu-ray drive.

I don't want anything garish or bulky, as I like the minimalist appeal of the Fractal case. I'm not too fussed on black or white as my speakers are white.

I have a GTX 460 with a Gelid fan, so need to be spacious enough to fit that in the case and be able to cool everything well enough.

Idea's guys?

P.S. Don't really want another Fractal as this one was a bit of a disappointment...

The Bitfenix Raider has quite a nice minimalistic look about it, nice cable management, plus OCUK do a noise dampened version here for £92 so would be nice and quiet I assume.

I would have said the Bitfenix Shinobi XL but it's £30 over your budget. :)

I like the looks, but the big mesh front end is putting me off. I did see a nice looking case, well, mostly good looking...it has an obnoxious handle on the side...here but I know most of the OCUK guys hate those cases...also I don't know how they are for cooling.

I did own a HAF 932 for about a month before I sacked it as it was too big...
 
Hmm...that Anidees is a little different but still nice. I am also keen on the Corsair although I'm sure I read somewhere that they suited an all in 1 water cooler better than air?


EDIT:- That Anidees case has got my vote...thanks guys!

If you buy the Anidees case then post up some pics of your build inside it! Was looking at that case previously, but never heard of anyone building inside it. Looks interesting nonetheless. :)
