What Case Should I get?

Ok so my mates Dad wants to build his own PC and I have been suggesting what he buys... I'm stumped on what case to buy though as money isn't a problem for him... Like at all, and I usually go for budget cases and therefore do not know what there is out there! Ok so what case would you buy and the only specification I know of is that it has to be able to fit a 120mm radiator (the H80i)

 

Thanks for any suggestions :)

 

Oh and btw I think he wants a windowed panel!

 

Thanks to @Volbet He asked what size the motherboard is and it's a standard ATX board :)

Well for a sleek and professional looking case that is fully featured I would suggest the Corsair 650D. If he wants something a little more wild looking I would suggest one of the NZXT Pantoms.

I was thinking about something like this?!

 

Corsair Carbide Series 300R Windowed ATX Mid Tower Case

 

Is that worse quality than the 650D? also it is a lot cheaper! But money isn't really a problem, it's just against what I would buy because of the price :O haha XD

Before I go and ramble what you should get do you have a budget?

If less then $400 I'd go for the 900d, if it's size the 800d or 650d are fine.

Yes One Piece and Anime in general are awesome, however since you have no budget you can not go wrong with Case-Labs!
