What case?

I'm planning a new build soon so looking at cases but nothing really jumps out at me. Currently leaning towards the Lian Li PC-B25FB It's pretty expensive though.

Any suggestions for a decent midi tower? Something simple but not boring, I don't really want a window because I'll have to start worrying about getting parts with matching colour schemes, haha.

Also thought about the fractal r3.

Edit: Just saw the thread on the Corsair 550D, also looks very nice.

Fractal r3 and corsair 550d are very nice.

Corsair 650d and 600t are very nice, but are windowed.

Fractal design arc midi strike me as another idea. Corsair 500r is also good.

Great case:

Easy to build and it's so quiet I had to take the side off to check the fans were spinning.

Yeah, I did a housemates build using the R3 so I know they are nice, especially for the price. Might go with the 550D to be different and I do prefer metal over plastic. They don't seem to have the fractal in gun metal anymore either

Titanium grey is basically gun metal?

Titanium grey is alright. Gun metal was darker though, at least I thought it was.

you can always buy a panel to replace the window
