Storm Scout imo. I had it before and it's a great case. Black interior with good airflow. It looks really nice in real life.

i would go with the scout, it has an ingenious drive bay mounting and great airflow once you add good fans to it.

+1 for the Scout.

Check out my last post in the Official Storm Scout Club thread, I typed up a little review for you. If you start at the last page and work your way back a few pages you can see all the pics of my system. Once my new PSU arrives I'll be doing a full wire tuck, and using uv blue sleeving on the wiring that has to be seen. I'm aiming to have it look as clean as the Ambush build.

I ultimately picked the scout over the 922. They are both great cases. But man, having that black interior won me over. I think the 922 has a black edition now also. Naturally. But between these two, I don't think you can get a better case for the money.
