Case choosing

What would be the case you would recommend im thinking of a Chieftech Scorpio TX-10
Not sure about colour yet most likely black or blue thou the silver looks nice.

Heres the specs:

Chieftech have quickly earned themselves a reputation for quality and innovation - as soon as we saw this case we could see why. The entire case is built to the very highest standards using high quality materials to create an incredibly strong case that looks as good as many more expensive case - this is certainly a heavyweight.

Featuring :
» 5.25" drive bay door - vented for cooling
» Lockable side door with quick release catch
» 3.5" bays featuring quick release catch for easy manipulation
» 4 x 80mm fan holes with easy to fit fan brackets
» heavy duty 340W Antec PSU - approved by AMD and Intel
» Drive bay sliders conveniently stored at base of case
» Easy to remove drive bay covers
» 4 x 5.25" bays
» 6 x 3.5" bays (2 visible)
» keylock on front panel

For a closer look see inside the case.

PSU Output :
+5v = 30A +12V = 15A
+3.3V = 28A -5V = 0.5A
-12V = 1A + 5VSB = 2A
With 6 large connectors and 2 small

sh@dow is an unknown quantity at this point
well when I chose my case I went for 1 with all the asthetic features like clear panels and neon lights. You should get the 1 you like the look of and thats got enough room, the rest can be added (psu, fans, locks whatever)

p.s clearly someones been stealing my thread title here eh
