Provided I don't REALLY want to spend £140 on a Lian Li PC-70, I was wondering which case you guys would recommend for me to buy. Full tower of course :)

Heres a few contenders,

Chieftec Full Tower Dragon Black (Loadsa room, No Removable Mobo Tray - Price!)

AOpen H700B (quite a nice touch on the 3.5 bays + Removable Mobo Tray - Under £100)

Lian Li PC-70 (Superb Case, Alu etc. etc. Won't be able to buy much else tho {Need New Mouse n stuff})

Any others?

Thanks :)

I've got several of the Antec and cheiftec cases and love them. For the money, they can't be beat.

If you wan't a cheaper Antec/Cheiftec (The dragon ones I mean) rip-off the Matrix cases that www.directron.com (i know it's american but at least you knw what to look for) has are the same with the exception of the front panel designe.

Then again that AOpen looks like it has some good features... And Lian-Li is always good. I would get the Dragon though since I always have no money... But your situation may be differnt though, if it is go for a better one!

The AOpen H700 is a great case, especially for the money. You also get a "free" Fortron/Sparkle (remarked Aopen) PSU, albeit the cheaper FSP350-60BT. The only problem is that it's quite heavy, being entirely steel and all.

I like the PC-70, those antecs arnt deep enough. The PC70 might not have a removable MB tray, but it dont need it.
