Default Lian Li PC-P80
I wish I would have done some research before I bought the Cooler Master Cosmos 1000. The Lian Li PC-P80 looks very well designed and thought out.

Lian Li Industrial Co., Ltd.

I never heard of Lian Li until I did a search on google for the "best case"

I only swear by my Lian-Li PC-V1000.... it's getting tight to fit my dual wc loop, but I still love it.

Not enough... although I think if i put another 3x 140mm AFTER the drive cages, pointing at the motherboard/video card(s) it could work. Lots n Lots of positive air pressure.

That's a nice case, I've always been a fan of Lian-Li cases, just too rich for my blood.

The only thing I don't particularly like about that case is how the 5.25" and 3.5" bays are on the side of the case. Other than that, its a beautiful case.

I like the modular for the SATA, you can just slide your hard drive into and and "click" you got a hard drive connected !

I agree, the modular SATA idea is a nice design. I also like the different zones they made for dispersing heat.

Only thing we are missing is the price... which would probably be over 300$

This case is absolutely phenomenal. I've owned it now for about 3 weeks and all i can say is the amount of space is utterly ridiculous. My setup looks so small, I have a ton of space in the bottom and the airflow is really nice. The built in fan controller is also a very nice feature that will, in addition to turning down the fan speed, aso dim the LED's on the fans.

Some pictures over here: New guys rig

I have a windowed sidepanel on order, I'll post up some more pics when it arrives.
