OK I want a new case. See my Jeantech thread as to why. I'll be getting one a week on Friday.

I have the following to fit in:

3 X HDD's (possibly a fourth coming)
1 X Optical Drive
ET850 PSU (it's a big beast)
Usual motherboard/CPU etc
Floppy drive.

I'd like 2X USB ports on the front. Apart from that I'm not fussed what it's like, as long as it looks good, has excellent airflow, and is easy to install drives and everything else in. I'm not fussed about noise either as I have my speakers pretty loud. I will be overclocking so once more, airflow is important!

I was thinking about the Antec Nine Hundred.
 
Cheers mate. Was just a bit concerned as I remember when I had two 7900's in SLI it was a tight fit with my X-Fi all crammed in the small area of PCI and PCI-E slots.

I think it would be up to the configuration of the motherboard rather than the case itself depending on how far apart the PCI-e and PCI slots are. If your having all of those then i'd reccomend buying a fan for the side of the case (as a fan isn't supplied for the side). Just to make sure your getting sufficient airflow for that area.

I've got loads of fans around at home mate. The fan on the side doesn't look as if it will be near to the PCI slots though. Any 900 owners confirm this please?
