So I've been looking around for a new aesthetically good looking case.

 

It should be mid to full in size, and handle a ATX board.

 

I've been eyeballing the Corsair 760T in black, and have seen Linus's review and seen the others comments in reguards to it being a little too flexable.

 

So without breaking a HUGE budget, and thinking looks like the Corsair, what other cases would people suggest?

Yea in my mind it doesn't get prettier than the Design S... Which sucks because it's a very popular case and I kinda wish it wasn't haha.

I just helped out a friend with a build in a 760T. The case is solid and well designed. Sure there may be a bit of flex, if you're trying to flex it... but after your build is finished, how often is it going to move?

 

That is true, but like I said, it was just something others and Linus did mention.

.. I guess I'm just not too happy with how cases look. They either seem to be goofy shaped, like:

.. or they're just blocky and don't have much appeal, like:

Or seem too 'themed' like:

To be honest, I don't like flashy cases. The Fractal Design Series for me is aesthetically pleasing, personally, with it's minimalistic design. Great case for the money, sturdy, roomy.

I don't know if it would fit you, though, depends on what's aesthetically pleasing to you.

I went with a Corsair 750d that I picked up off eBay. It's a nice looking case (to me) and has a lot of nice filters on it as well as spots to put fans, cages, custom water loop (should I go that route), etc. It does have a bit of flex in the side window that I'm not too fond of, but since I won't be removing it all that much, it's not that big of a deal for me.
