I'm thinking because I have an M-ATX board and at the moment I have the Antec Three Hundred Two with isn't an M-ATX case, I was thinking of either getting:

 

A The NZXT Vulcan

or B The Corsair Obsidian 350D When it comes out in Europe

Any other suggestions appreciated.

Or which one you would choose and why would be awesome :D

 

PROFILEYEAH

What do people even put in these things?

I would so be patient and get the 350D. Looks so awesome and as you say, non tekkies will appreciate it. It's corsair, so it's decently built and looks awesome :D Post pictures of whatever you get.

Feel free to message me if you want to chat!

I would get the 350D because of its nice plain window that it has unlike the mesh that is in the Vulcan. I don't really like the handle on the Vulcan because the assembly of the handle seems flimsy to me: nzxt-vulcan_handle.jpgSource: http://www.hardwareheaven.com/reviews/1008/pg2/nzxt-vulcan-review-packaging-bundle.html

350d for sure. If you were to get an atx form factor case, I would suggest the fractal arc midi r2.

Arc Midi R2 | Asus Maximus VII Hero | Intel i5 4690k | Asus GTX 970 Strix | Corsair H80 | Crucial M4 128gb | 8gb 1333 Mushkin Silverline | EVGA G2 750

I vote for the Arc Mini! Looks like a great case, and a bit smaller than the 350D, if that's what you're looking for as well.

PSA note though, that if you use an all-in-one liquid cooler like an H100i (or any 240mm rad) in the top of it, it blocks the rear exhaust fan so you can't use it.
