I'm not really sure provably:

Corsair 500R White - Overall

Antec LANBOY Air - Looks

Zalman Z9 U3 - Price/goodness


BTW, I own an Antec 900 and have to say that it's actually awfull right now, well not completelly true, it's a ok case but it has so many features and there's plenty of better cases for much less.

EDIT: After watching other people "submissions" I know I'd change some.

Sure, but it's like a 16 year old in a brightly colored business suit. Bright shiny plastic, fairly aggressive angles on the plastic at that. The window is cut at an aggressive angle as well.

This is professional looking.

This is professional looking.

I agree the regular version of the Switch 810 is horrendous with that reflective plastic that scratches like there is no tomorrow. BUT .... I will defend my 810 matte black to the death of me!!!! muahahahah

While that case is professional looking and probably has a lot of nice features at a gut wrenching price it is boring as hell to look at. Even full of a nice custom loop. Same reason I outgrew my Shinobi. Got bored of the sleek lines.

THere is no need to be bashing other cases here. It's our top 3 choices not what you think is crap. I could say that Shinobi XL is one of the crappiest large cases IMO but there is no need for that.... oops I just did it.

Silverstone FT02:



Little Devil PC-V8



Case Labs Merlin SM8



While I have yet only owned the FT02, the other two are just about the most awesome cases I can think of.

I have the sense to give a nod towards objectively good aspects of it. Aesthetic choice is entirely subjective. No need to become a troll.

1. Case Labs S/MH10, though having an SM8 I can't decide between them now

2. Lian Li PC-A75/76

3. Rosewill Blackhawk Ultra

Probable tie for 3rd would be the ATCS 840, though newer cases are giving me a bit more to like about them in internal features.
