I'm putting together a few builds atm and am getting a little stuck on cases. I need cases at 4 price points, cases need to lean more toward the flashy end, bright colours and bright lights, etc.
The main catch is that I may need to build quite a few of each build, and if that's the case, I flat out refuse to work in any low quality case again. I am sick of CM 370's etc with screw holes that strip first time with almost no pressure.
So that in mind I've got a few cases I think could work, but am looking for some info about their quality. Any suggestion of cases I might have missed are also welcome.
Finally cases will need painted interiors, and usb3 support is preferred, particularly on the higher end ones, as I'll be using H&Z77 boards.
R300-R600
Zalman Z9 Plus
R800
Zalman Z11 Plus
CM Storm Enforcer
AEROCOOL SYCLONE II
R1000-R1100
CM 690 II Advanced
Antec Nine Hundred Two v3
Thermaltake Overseer RX-I
R1300-R?
First two sections, I think the cases are a good fit, some info on build quality would be great.
Last two sections I'm really not that sure. Higher end cases seem to become less and less flashy. I need each bracket of case to clearly look shinier than the previous, and I'm not sure any of those clearly communicate that over the R800 bracket.
Some of the full towers are quite nice, but would prefer to stay at mid tower if I can help it, and prefer cases that come with led lights installed as opposed to having to swap out unlit fans for lit ones myself.
Any help would be appreciated.
