I am in search of a case for my new build but am having trouble finding one that fits my requirements with a price tag under $150 as I would rather get an extra 6gb of ram than an expensive case.
Desired features:
Strudy (preferably no plastic, but lets be realistic, no preference on steel/aluminum)
Quiet (space for dampening material, possibly hdd cage isolation)
8+ hdd bays
4+ 5.25" bays
preferably black, no side window, minimal lighting, no front door, space for 2-3 120mm fans (already have), rectangular shape (ie, no jet engine intakes, etc)
Small as possible as it will be going in a dorm
other info: i7 w/ larger hsf (possibly Scythe MUGEN-2), nvidia gts 250, 7hdds to start, 2xdvd-rw, 5.25" card reader
planed 1 year additions: bluray reader, extra hdd(s)
Basically, I just want a no frills case that will not distract, yet be sturdy and capable of holding all the components
Any recommendations?
Thanks
