Im looking to buy a computer case and am wondering whats the best one to buy? I am wanting a case that would be good for a high performance system, the looks really dont matter just the quality and price. Any ideas? thx

Akasa Eclipse-62 Aluminum Case
Antec P180 Advanced Super Midi Tower Case
Coolermaster Wave Master
CoolerMaster Praetorian

Also seems that any of the Thermaltake cases are good for high performance/gaming systems.

Another vote for the Akasa Eclipse. I have one, loads of room and good cooling potential.

Akasa Eclipse-62 Aluminum Case - Great case but ugly plastic front
Antec P180 Advanced Super Midi Tower Case - Good, but a few too many little problems
Coolermaster Wave Master - Cooling isnt brilliant, uses 80mm fans so fairly loud (stock anyway)
CoolerMaster Praetorian - I hope you mean the ATC version (not the newest one) absolutely brilliant but hard to get hold of.

Also seems that any of the Thermaltake cases are good for high performance/gaming systems. - Some are ok, I don't think any could be considered "the best" case though

Akasa Eclipse,

Simply the best case IMO.
