    I quiet like this thermaltake armor, its got more than enough space , good cooling and it looks nice.
    That or an akasa eclipse 62 or a coolermaster stacker.
    But they are all half meter tall cases so if you are looking for something tidier.........

    being form galway , I cant help you there. Pc world in galway have a large selection of jeantech cases which are a bit poo.

    Maplin has some dodgy lookin mac rip off cases which for some reason remind me of michael Jackson. It must be that whiter than white image.

    Damnit, why didn't I look here earlier. I am selling a Coolermaster Wavemaster for €160 :(

    Best case I have ever used, but just isn't big enough to take all the WC stuff I want to put in it... :(

    Antec sonata is lovelly and quiet to, holds 4 hd's and 3X cd/dvd rom and 2X floppy.
    I love mine and would recomend it to anyone.

    Antec P160 is nice to friend has one, maybe that little bit better than the sonata but there's a few things i dont like about the way it looks.

    im coming up to the big smoke this weekend

    Peats - It direct and Marx computers, is there anywhere else in town worth a visit?

    Im looking to see a few cases do any of these have a decent selection and if you had to visit only one which would it be (as i might get fairly lazy if I go for beer during the day)

    Well i have only been to peats and maplins in dublin, but i find peats has got all i need, i think they have a fairly big modding section, with loads of fans, cases and even some water cooling equiptment. I havent been latley but they change there cases fairly often.
