Help me decide!
I am torn between these four cases. I'll be putting a chilly1 single stage underneath it so keep that inmind when choosing:

http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...474605&CatId=0
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Showim...+Black+Aluminu
http://www.newegg.com/Product/ShowIm...y%20-%20Retail
http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?inv...BLK-NP&cat=CAS

Please vote cause I gotta decide this in the next two days and I need input! I'll concider any other case as well. Price doesnt matter.

Wow the ASPIRE X-Navigator ATXA8NW-BK/500 is one ugly case, the Raidmax Samurai plainly is copying the Alienware cases and I own a Thermaltake Tsunami so... I am stuck between the Shark and the XG case - I have often found myself admiring the XG and the Shark is nothing new so I go for the XG.

I have the X-Navigator and it is flawless! Im not just saying this cause i have it but it really is an incredible case, the only thing i dont like about it is that there is no front audio. Other than that it is an exteremly well built case. If you like the lighting scheme then go for it, if your not a fan of lots of leds then this case is not for you. Personally i dont like the shark, but its up to you.

X-Navigator has my vote

One thing i like about it is the changable faceplates. Right now i have blue on top and silver on bottom and it looks awesome.

I just noticed if price doesn't matter why don't you join the Zalman TNN500AF club that I'll be joining next week? (By buying one obviously.)

Yeah I was already leaning towards the shark and this thread helping to make the choice easier. I really don't like how the zalman case looks and the Navigator would look odd on top of a black single stage box...

I don't know why you wouldn't just go with a lian-li....best case i've ever used. I've used a Thermaltake Shark and lian-li is way better.

XG can not make a case, did a review on one back a couple months ago, it was not worth the money.

The Shark out of those, but the Stacker 810 would be the best choice in my opinion.
