Good Case w/ window + Rubber gomits

Hi everyone,
I was wondering what good cases are out there. I'm looking for one with a side window, and rubber gomits.
If you don't know what rubber gomits are, they are the rubber things that are on the holes where your cables
go in and out from, inside the case for cable management. I would also like the case to have a lot of room, enough
for easy cable management and SLI capabilities. I would prefer it to be a Mid tower or a full tower.
My Budget is $200, but i would prefer around $100 if it is possible.

Thanks!

i'm just going to get it out of the way now

Fractal R4


As an addendum to the OP:

everyone else suggest something other than an R4, since the way we do it here is the choice of cases is the Fractal R4 (anything Corsair, and the H440 are in second and third respectively) and then everything else.

I've no idea what a gomit is. What you're describing are grommets.

 

Most decent cases nowadays have (the option of) a side window and if they have any form of cable management, then 80% of the time they have grommets to go with them.

It's not because I have it, just trying to prevent a Fractal circle jerk

 

It's a great case, don't get me wrong, but it's definitely not the only case. The hive isn't as bad as it was a few months ago though where a case recommendation thread would drive you absolutely nuts since Linus and Tek Syndicate endorsed it and the responses consisted of a storm of more or less:

 

R4

R4

R4

900D

R4

how aboot a prodigy for ur ATX bored??

R4

y not an R4?

R4

OP: ok guys i got an r4

The Cooler Master HAF X is a really awesome case.

seems kind of outdated and case for amathophiliacs (made up word)

Oh sorry, I forgot what they were called lol. Thanks for correcting me, and Yea, I was looking at the 750D but I can't buy it at memoryexpress, my local computer part dealer. They always sell out! 

 

 

NZXT h440. It is uber sexy

I was thinking about the H440 too, but, I'm looking for something that would fit a black/blue build. Its a really nice case none-the-less. Just wish they made one thats black with blue accents.

The R4 looks nice but is it enough space?

The Fractal Design Define R4 is the only suggestion you really need. Ignore all others.

Switch 810, it might be slightly over budget depending on location but it is a beautiful thing.

If you aren't going as overkill then a phantom 530 isn't bad either (basically comes down to how much are you going to spend on watercooling)?

 

I'll also give a mention of phanteks enthoo primo ultimate
