    Hey guys

    Okay I am really getting tired of my Antec 900 case with its horrible wire management. What case has the best cable management that looks nice? Preferably under $150.

    if u like iron heavy cases with HUGE fans, go for the HAF 932, nice case, good cooling and nice cable managmente
    If u go for an alu case i like the 830 Stacker from Cooler Master hehe, took myself some time but still i have no cables around blocking my air ducks hehe

    Probably something like the Antec P182. Check reviews, though.

    With a little bit of work you can cut your own holes for cable routing in the 900. Quite a few people (inc me on page 33) have done it here:

    Having just built a brand new Core i7 system for myself, using an Antec P182 I can attest that while it is a fantastic case, with excellent build quality and features -- cable management is quite good HOWEVER the thickness/clearance of the motherboard tray and the side door where you route your power supply is rather on the narrow side and I had to really squeeze my Corsair HX620 sleeved cables around until the panel popped into place -- its' a tight fit and I would have liked to see Antec had another 5mm of clearance if possible.
