Lian-Li A05N

disclaimer: I own it

Also got one of those, although mine is silver..

Also have the http://c1.neweggimages.com/NeweggImage/productimage/11-112-186-03.jpg as an HTPC and
this for my gaming PC : http://www.computerpartsreview.com/image-files/lian-li-pc-c33.jpg

I prefer desktop cases, when I want to fiddle, no need to do it vertically

I prefer Tower's since I'm taller than the average guy I don't have to bend down too much

hahaha... but on a serious note, it is much easier to change something on a desktop than a tower. Only proplems I found with the Lian Li Desktop, is the bad ventilation when you have serious graphics cards installed

So I did some minor changes and fitted a fan on the top of the case and well.. it's running very cool. 6 cores on a 1600 RPM low profile CPU fan is running at 29c idle (ambient in room is about 25c at the moment)
After about 2 hours of gaming the max the GFX (HD6870) gets to is 65c and CPU (1075T) about 52c.

I didn't think ventilation would be the problem, I thought space would.

The Storm Trooper seems to be quite a popular case, most probably since its suited for LAN

And got very good reviews on top of that.

I'm the complete opposite of you I love flashy cases

I cannot stand cheesy cases hey I love elegance, it's like choosing Mercedes AMG over a piece of crap tuned to match the 0 to 100 of the merc with those ugly spoilers and stupid wheels!

I would nominate the Gumpert Apollo as that piece of crap : http://static.blogo.it/autoblog/07.gumpert.apollo.act.r34.1.500.jpg
