IMHO, thermaltake makes fucking ugly cases.

I want to recommend this one that I grabbed last month (it's the same as the 3700BQE only not black), my only complaint is that I had to take the front panel off entirely (which admittedly was easier to do than on other cases I've tried that with) to fit the optical drive in the bay with rails attached.

I'd say those are ugly and overpriced, but it's really up to you. I'm sure they are decent quality though.

If I were buying a case right now, I'd get this and throw in a high quality PSU: http://www2.newegg.com/Product/Produ...82E16811129152

But I like minimalist looking computers.

all good points.the reason i like these two are as follow
i love doors on both of these i got see them at frys thick and stronge not cheap or weak feeling at all.
Tsunami has top usb & mic jack witch is perfect for location it will be going
120mm fan in back
on the shark drive can be put in side ways and removable motherboard tray.
i may go water cooling with this,my friend has machine shop he built hes own water cooling blocks from raw in about 10 hours. he been building stuff like this for 14 years he wants build me a case but i havent made up my mind yet.
he bought the tubing and other stuff i hook it up and testyed while he built rest .

On behalf of Ali and myself, I recommend a Lian Li PC-65. The price isn't too bad, and it doesn't look gay and ricey like those other cases. You'll regret having a ricer-looking case after a few days, trust me. Even the Chieftec cases are pretty nice.

If you are still between those two you first posted, they both look like decent cases and either would work just fine. Features are close between the two, so its up to you based on looks or whatever you decide.
