I've decided this will be my new case, mostly because of how sleek it looks, but I can't decide between these 2. The PC-7B is $100 on coolerguys (http://coolerguys.com/840556060840.html) and it has 120mm fans instead of 80mm, and thats pretty much the only difference I see between these 2, but I'm wondering why it's so cheap? Is the 7B lower quality then the 65B?

thanks =)

I don't think that the PC7B+ is lower quality than the other lian li cases.
I'd go for the PC-7B+, because I prefer cases that have the room for 120mm fan installation. Price is OK too.

I know what you mean by OK...still expensive, but cheap for Lian-Li =\. I wish I could find a case as slick looking as Lian-Li, but nothing is like that, they are all flashy and stupid looking (take anything from Thermaltake for example :P)

Can't agree more my friend.

After much searching, I came across an affordable case that doesn't look bad at all:

Aspire X-Sonic (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811144074)

The front and rainbow fans are cheasy, but overall it's not bad at all. I'd replace the fans though, rainbow looks silly. And its HALF the price of the 7B, which DOES look nicer, but it's just so much moneyyyy =(

Whatcha guys think?

Go for 65B... reason 7B is cheaper is not due to cheaper construction but non-removable mobo tray vs removable one.

i have aspire x dreamer II. I hate it. THe quality of the build is not that great. But cheap price so i got what i paid for. My next case is gonna be the lian-li. A friend has one. The case is built solid. I don't mind spending the extra money for quality.
