Ok dantheman, what exactly is your budget?  And do you really "need" a water cooled case?

I'm need to get a new case. Any suggestions? Also what are your thoughts one those liquid cooled cases from Koolance?

If you want a quiet system with no overclocking then Koolance fits your bill. Otehrwise stay the hell away from them. Get a Antec/Cheiftec case and a watercooling system from Dangerden.com if you want a good case with excellent water cooling for overclocking<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

how much is your budget? do you want your case to have lots of spots for fans? do u need a powersource/how big of a psu?

Cost doesn't matter. If I don't get liquid cooled I'll want a case with plenty of room for fans. Also if the case comes with a psu I'll need at least a 350w.

this might sound dumb but what's a PSU?

PSU stands for Power Supply Unit

Ok, I can't spend more than $200 (US) on the case, not including fans. Also I don't "need" a water cooled case. It would just be nice.

Chieftec makes some great cases. Plenty of room to work in and <$100 without the PSU.

Well I 've decided to go with the Antec Plus 1080AMG with a 430 watt psu. It's only $130 from newegg.com. Well thanks everyone for your input.

Antec makes some nice cases. My previous case was an Antec tower and it was great.
