Very good recommendations breezer. That case is veeery nice but its a bit wide and more expensive than 3000. I will think about it tho.
About the ccooling. Closed loops are way to expensive for me to spend on a cooler. Macho is to huge extreme and also pricey.
That fan You posted seems nice and I've heard of it before so thats good

+1 for Fractal. Had an R2 for my previous build, now I have the Arc that Breezer posted. Would definitely recommend an R3 or R4, or Arc.

I have this case and I think it is really good. Good build quality and lots of room - you will fit pretty much anything in it. The parts inside still look new thanks to the dust filters. The air flow is great, even with the fans on low. The only slight problem with the case is the front panel with the USB and head/mic ports is poorly grounded. You need to unscrew the earth and attach it to something else. I have it attached to a screw on my optical drive.

One week left. Still waiting for good propositions.
As for noe fractal 3000 is on the lead thanks to price
Arc midi is just behind it
And corsair 500r dont have top filtered so together with high price... Not good

I think I will put an order today.
Still deciding but I think fractal 3000 should do just fine. Arc midi is a bit too wide.
As for cooling. Maybe hyper 212? Someone recommended it to me and its quite cheap
Edit: also - I emailed fractal about flimsy top on arc midi as Ive seen in the videos (mesh binding) and they answered that the case was not. Redesigned

crap case is crap. I built my buddies system in that and it was cheap as hell. On top of that the top fan went bad in a day and the only way to get it out is to literally destroy the case, then getting a hold of antec to get a replacement fan was near impossible.
That Fractal is sexy as hell. |

Fractal cases are amazing. And the Fractal itself seems like great company. They even answered my every email in a day or two.

r4 is a silent case. Have higher temps than others but.
arc midi is a cool case
3000 is same as air midi feature wise, but less wide and with less options for wc
all 3 cases come with dust filters, 3 fans, cable management holes and room on back, removable hdd trays etc.
Only r4 and xl have sound proof material

I don't use dust filters. They kill airflow. Your system is going to get dusty no matter what. You build a computer you should know how to maintain it. Compressed air once a week or so does the trick.

i have been impressed with the quality of my cm storm trooper. i imagine the rest of the cm storm line is equally well made and easy/awesome to work with. the cm support guy i talked to a few times is a gentleman and a scholar as well (and also promptly answers me with good info).
