As post describes looking for your thoughts on these three cases, at the moment I have a red Nxtz Phantom http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/p...HANTOMRED.html but I have decided I really do not like it. thee are one or two design flaws which make it a nuisance and to be quite honest, although I love the red I want something more. It is very bland.
So my next case as well as excellent cooling I would like to be able paint the outside and inside. I am rather partial to flashing fans etc so I think that lets out Raven 2.

So over to you. I am also open to any other suggestions, but I must say I have pretty much ruled out any of the Antec cases and I think most of the Coolermasters are out also. But as I say your thoughts and suggestion are most welcome.

There is a red FT02 as well, if you can find one (they were limited edition afaik).

Personally I love red Lian Li cases. They cost a bit more but they are very well made. Although, i would never paint them

As for flashy, how about haveing a look at this review of bitfenix. They seem to offer some good custom options.

The 650d looks the best IMHO but is meant to be quite loud

If it were me I would get the raven as the cooling us ace and a rotated mobo is a great idea
