Just interested in what people's favorite cases are, partly because I'm looking into buying a new case shortly.

My top 3 would be:

1. Corsair 800D

2. Corsair 650D

3. Corsair 600T

I know, very repetitive, I'm pretty sure who my favorite case manufacturer is right now. They make absolutely amazing cases, just wish they all used the most recent front panel IO standards, their latest lowest range case has a USB 3.0 port but their most expensive case doesn't.
 
Because I'm a matx man:

1. SilverStone FT03
2. SilverStone SG03-F
3. Lian Li V354

I would put Langear's Da Box, if it wasn't for its price and difficulty to obtain, and notable mention to v350/1.

For larger cases, although I haven't tried them:

1. SilverStone FT02 or RV02-E white (seeing as they're basically the same apart from externals)
2. One of the Lian Li X series - the tall ones. They're just ridiculously priced.
3. Fractal Design R3/XL? If I were to go back to atx, and strapped for cash these would be my pick.

And again notable mention to TJ07 - looks beautiful, but it is not user friendly out of the box/ lacking in features. Also maybe Lian li V2000 or something along those lines (they have too many models).

I dislike how Corsair are turning into a "jack of all trades" manufacturer. They make the best RAM IMO, their PSUs are immense but stay off the cooling and cases please.. (I do have an H50 in one rig but that doesnt make my argument invalid :@)
 
Find it hard to believe someone can resist the aesthetics of those corsair cases! I do have to admit, Silverstone make pretty nice cases too, especially interested in the FT02, although I do hear the build quality can dissapoint some careless users in regards to how easy it is the scratch the paint off or damage the outer chasis

Would you prefer they didn't sell cases? I actually prefer how they're attempting to expand, because it seems they're doing an okay job in the cooling department and I just love these cases. The H50 was popular but I seem to remember it being a bit expensive for the performance and not as good as slightly cheaper high end traditional heatsinks. They do make traditional heatsinks now though.
 
So many excellent cases avaiable, very difficult to choose only three.

My choice.

1. Corsair 800D

2. Corsair 650D

3: CM690 II Advance.
