I would recommend a full tower case. I had the Antec 900 and the video card is tight in it. I went full tower. The Coolermaster 932 is only $150 and has as good if not better air flow but full tower for $50 more. You will be more happy full tower!

I would also try to get a larger case as there is a high probability that you will want to cram more candy into your case as time goes by.

Although not as flashy, this Chieftec is decent.

Or, this NZXT Zero is also a possibility.

If you want a window, one can be added relatively easily and they don't cost too much (Window kit).

Anyhooo...just kinda rambling here...

Last time i tryd to do a window mod i messed up so bad... never do it again. Do you think a NZXT Tempest is better suited for the 4870?

How many want to take votes on how long the friendship lasts after this exchange?

On topic though, I think the build looks good. My only suggestion is going with a lower power power supply to save some $$, but if you plan on crossfiring later on, probably good to have the extra juice.

The efficacy of side-mounted fans is questionable, but I have had some luck with cases that have the internal volume to minimize turbulence.

This XClio is kinda interesting.
