best full tower case

[Lost Soul]

hi every body, im currently in the process of building a new pc and using my old one as a file server

as of now im just trying to pick out what pieces id like,, so far i just kinda know roughly what i want but this is what i want to do with it

overclock,, and water cool based maybe even a step further with vapor but undecided on that

right now id like some help with ideals on the best FULL tower case i can get with a price limit but id like to hear any ideals

this case must be aluminum

well ventilated, / suitable for over clocking

id rather the case be under 200 bucks ,, matter of fact the better the price vrs quality the better,,, im trying to get the best value

meaning i dont want to go insane on this

thanks for any help / advice you can give

and heres the info for it heres the info page for the case http://www.antec.com/us/productDetails.php?ProdID=81800

i had a quick look on the american antec site and its $169 so thats under ur budget too. im sure many ppl who own this case will tell u its a absolutely beautiful case and well worth the money.

The top end cases are by Lian Li.

My friend has the Gigabyte Aurora, and he adores it. It also comes with an optional water cooling kit designed specifically for it.

IMHO, Newegg is the authority on cases, and here is a list of the their full towers.

CompUSA has the P180 on sale this week for $119.99...$50 instant savings. That's a helluva deal if you're looking for a good case...just don't plan on doing many LAN parties because it's a heavy sucker.
