Hey!
I am so tired of my old, ugly Q-tec case, so i want a new and better case! It must be a cool high quality midi-case with room for many fans. No PSU.
What do you suggest?

Chieftec Aluminum (or Steel) Dragon Series. Low cost, quality build, decent look, and quite sizable (about 520x470x205).

Most of the good cases are quite normalized, though there probably is a reason for this ;)
Kingwin KT-424 series maybe? Well made cases with thick (2.0 mm) aluminum.

Antec SLK3700-series (and like-design cases)? Smaller then Chieftec Dragon-copy cases.
Antec P160?
Super-Flower SF-201 or SF-301?

Mmmmm - Kingwin...
They broke the mold with the KT-436-BK
Too bad they are discontinued - removable mobo tray, 5 fans (not counting PSU), NO SHARP EDGES!!! - Sweet!
Check the 424 and the 11 series. Very affordable, many of the same features as the KT-434...
Check em out - Newegg has em!

I think this case would be very nice for some serious modding..!

The SLK3700-series is a very good series of cases. A bit small but still big enough. The BQE has it's hard drive bay mounted parallel to the front of the case. A lay-out that slight hampers clear air-flow more then the normal lay-out found in the AMB. Modding it slightly would increase airflow and lower HD and case temps.

It's no problem with the BQE's harddrivebay, cuz i'm proberbly modding a 120mm fan into the case side to boost the airflow.

Yup I agree, I have one and I hate it.
I modded the crap out of it, drilled out the internal HD cages, put blow holes / side holes etc.
And I still hated it :mad:
So I got a PC75 and gave that pos xaser iii to my lil bro haha :D
