I'm looking for a new case, any good cases in Australia? (MSY, GameDude & Scorptec)

I want the case to have:

- $100 to $150 AUD

- Side window

- ATX

- Front USB 2.0 AND 3.0

- Included at least 2 fans

The biggest bottleneck is the Aussie internet..

Enthoo Pro is probably the right choice but I'll just throw these other two out there:

 

Nanoxia Claw (http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=25_547&products_id=26830) (other colours available)

Thermaltake Urban T31 (http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=25_547&products_id=26961) (don't know much about this one but it looks like Thermaltake is trying to lift its game)

Incase if you change your choice.

NZXT H440

It's a mid tower case.

 

Cost about $200 here in Australia.

This one doesn't really have a window but I think it looks sick. Be Quiet base 800. It is 120€

Looks cool, but not really what I'm looking for.

Thanks, I'll keep them in mind in case I can't get the Enthoo.  :)

Order it from PCcasegear?..... http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=27575&cPath=547  PCCG is much better than those 3 you mentioned, besides scorptec. 

here's Linus' video on this case:
