I'm thinking of getting the Coolermaster CM690 Dominator, costs £50 and has got pretty good reviews, I'm currently using this Wizard Case.. which kinda pisses me off because it's really bright at night and I have to kinda cover it up with clothes :< Anyway point is does anyone know any probs with the Coolermaster at all, or if there is a sustantially better case that I've missed for around £50, baring in mind I don't want too much LED malarky. EDIT: Just looking at the Antec Nine Hundred, seems pretty awesome, bit pricey at £68 though. _________________

AAAAAAAAAAAANNNNTEEEECCCCC except for the 900, which is a bit blingy for my liking. I love the sonata line of cases, I have the II, it's really quiet and a pleasure to build in. The current one, the III is about £60 iirc but comes with a PSU. (I also have the minuet 300 and the NSK380, I like antec a lot  )

Got the case all setup now, whew..upon rival I was like 'wtffff it is massive!' lol
Literally took me like 2 hours to transfer over from my old comp to the p180 case, I actually resorted to the instructions a few times which sucks too.
I managed to cram all the PSU cables behind my the mobo (had to use my knee's and arms to get the side door to shut though lol) so it looks really neat and the airflow must be awesome,
It's pretty much the same noise level as before if not a little louder which is disappointing since I got it for the noise dampening doors and such but I guess there is 1 more fan on this case and most the noise is coming from my damn CPU fan ¬_¬
Anyway all in all a good case, but bit of a bitch to install compared to other cases I've used..
EDIT: Made my CPU fan be quiet, its much better now woot ^^
