I highly recommend this case. http://www.ebuyer.com/product/144802

I have one and it is very roomy inside, plus it has server like HDD cages. It even has holes to mount a dual 120mm radiator at the top.

If you want to see it check out my gallery.

The extra room that the 1200 has is unless, and rather ugly. It has like 4 inches of empty space above the motherboard, and a bit more below it. It's a total waste of space, and unless you make use of the extra HDD/CD Drive bays... money.

I have been considering ditching mine for something with a little more room.
Hence why I got my case, uber room for everything, especially if you do not water cool, you have a TON of room in it without a radiator taking up the whole bottom.

I was getting fed up with trying to work on my 1200 between my 2 video cards and getting to the HDD and DVD drive at the bottom. I will say tho, the 1200/900 have some AMAZING cable management potential like this, pic of when I had the 1200:




In this pic you can see what a chore it was to get to the HDD and dvd drive cables and the top cables for the cathodes and fan controller.
