590 is great for cable management. I dunno bout the 300, but the 900 was a flop in the cable management section.

In the uk the 300 is half the price of the 590 , I want the 590 but that would just be wasting money here.

Yeah, I got the 300 for $54 (shipped) from buy dot com.

Couldn't beat the price. The airflow is not quite as good as the 900 but very close.

I have a Q6600 at 3.2 with temps in the low 50's. I can get it to 3.6 with temps in the low 60's. Which is about the same as my 900. This is on air with a xig cooler.

Yea the antec 900 is on sale for like 80 bucks w/ MIR or something plus shipping. But im going to have to wait a while and see if I can find a free shipping deal or something on a case, I can't hack paying 23+bucks on shipping just for a case.

I like how the the 300 looks. I also think it has more potential for modding whereas the 590 does not. So if you'd rather do some modding, the 300 is better. If you'd rather have holes pre-cut and whatnot, even if you may not need them, then the 590 is a better choice.

I myself like to mod stuff. So I'd choose the 300. But that's just me. Plus, Antec products are always really good quality.

the 690 is basically a 590 that's a little nicer and has fan filters on top!
If the price is close, i'd say go 690. But i've been happy with my 590. It cools great, my system temps are really low.
