Out of those I find the CM690 the best case, others might prefer the Antec 900 though. It's also a matter of personal preference.

I am talking about the Nvidia Edition (me is ATI user and ATI fanboy) because the CM690 is not avelable in my country

I'd defiantly take the CM690, it is overall a better case, cheaper, better & overall the best bang for the buck

lol at M1 teasing you

Well i voted 900 cause i got it.. modded it and i love it..

Temps are awesome "hate the 2 weeks dusting though"
any way i would recommend the 900 cause it's very cool but take care cause if you are after a HUGE card like the GTX200 series or alternatives in ATI you will need to remove the middle fan bracket..

Anyway good luck man
