Both are excellent cases. If you want more airflow get the C70.

The 650d and 800d are designed for watercooling.

I have the 650D and it was the best investment out of all the hardware I bought. The build quality is outstanding (typical Corsair quality), it is very easy to build a system in, great cable management, and good airflow.

The C70 is very similar to the 650D on the inside, the feature set is basically identical, and also has the same great quality. This is a personal choice obviously, but I definitely recommend the 650D, because of everything I listed above, but mainly because of the sleek, subtle looks. The C70 is a bit more flashy, but again, all personal preference.

i5 3570k - MSI Z77 GD65 - 16GB Corsair Vengeance - Galaxy GTX 780 - Corsair AX650 - Custom CPU Loop - Corsair 650D - OCZ Agility 4 128GB - WD Black 640GB

In my opinion the 650D is a lot more attractive with its sleek features and it looks a lot more high-end, maybe I'm just bias against the military look of the c70?

I prefer the look of the 650d but choose the case which you think looks better.

Good Morning...

As an alternative, think about the Fractal Arc series. Really stealth look, great airflow and value. I love my arctic white Fractal Define R4, but that is a different look than your going for. The smaller midsize, Arc Mini (R2 version) was just redone to allow for great watercooling options; as a slightly smaller options for you.
