Antec Sonata II.

You might want to replace the PSU with something better, and maybe get a 120 mm fan for the front. For the price, though (sub $100 with a decent 450W PSU?) it's a steal.

Lian-Li PC-7B plus II (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811112099)

this case is great, and better than a sonata imo. calling antec PSU's "decent" isn't right...

Good places to look around

As said above the Sonata II is very good contender.

coolermaster centurion isn't too bad, you can replace front fan with slower/quieter one

I am looking at the $99 lian but the front audio ports won't work with my mobo (ds3) any other cases without a cover on the harddrives?
