I'm using the Antec Sonata, I like the plain black look.

Bought it for $140 plus tax and shipping from Vibe Computers. It includes the Truepower 380S PSU, which itself is probably worth ~70-80 dollars.

Sorry no pics since I don't have a digital camera, but you can just go to Antec's site for some.

Using a KingWin 424

Like the looks and the window, but i feel that the inside of the case is cramped. Pics below are a few days old, but i just added/removed some stuff and a little wire managament yesterday and don't have updated pics.

Here is mine - Chenbro Junior:



I love it, even though it is not aluminum. High-quality server-grade case, and certified for dual Athlon/Xeon.

And my next HTPC/2nd PC will probably go into this:



If I can find one, that is. -_-

I'm using a Antec SX1000II. I got it from Infonec and I think I paid arounf $120 or $130 and that was without a power supply. I really like the case, it's kind of big but that's pretty good as my cpu and mobo temps rarely go over 35c, I'm usually at 30c.



Here's a link ot it's specs: http://www.antec-inc.com/us/pro_details_en...p?ProdID=81003#

Funny thing is that I don't know how to remove the front air filter to clean it. I had Infonec build me my PC so I didn't actually put it together and I can't seem to remove it so if anyone knows how please let me know.

My server is the same as JB22; my Windows comp is a jet black elgonated case, with two colour rods on the front that cycle through colours. It alsohas a digital thermometer on the front, which comes in handy during the hot summer months.

It looks like this, but this model doesn't have the digital readout:



I also have a 286 desktop case for my router, and a 486 AST case for my backup server.

Great thread!

Mine is just a plain full-tower case on wheels. I have no idea what the name brand is, I bought it at a local computer store...
