To me Windy cases are the most beautiful cases on the market. The level of class and lack of plasticy bling is my kind of style.

probably a custom one that i'll never make because every possible configuration has a drawback.

but a case i really like at the moment is the nzxt s340
S340-case-white-system-04.jpg
finally done away with ancient optical drives, a basement for all your cr*p (hard drives and cables) gives a super clean look, places to show off your SSD's, even looks like it has a spot for mounting a t-virus. and its £55/$87 (like a d5 vario pump), considering i have a 750d thats quite a case.

I had the Antec 900 (v1) a while ago but currently have the R4 (non-window version). I like it a lot but its boring in my opinion. It does the job tho.

I like the looks of the H440 but heard air flow isn't that great.

So i have been looking at cases for a long time now (2-4 month) and i can never settle on one. So i want to get some inspiration on what to get. Therefore i want to see which one you consider the perfect/best case out there.

 

Before you ask, yes you can have more than one favorite case. You can split it up in categories like, best watercooling, airflow or small case.
