These are very different cases. 

 

I would say the Thermaltake because it's just so badass, but neither of those cases are ones I would go with.

 

If you have a sick water cooling loop, definitely the thermaltake.

The luxe is prettier IMHO.

If you have sexy hardware you want to show off. Do you take your PC places? Do you have a nice room to display it in? 

 

Don't get a sexy clear, open air case if you're gonna stick under your messy desk

Why's that?

[IMPERIUS]

They are very different cases so we can't decide. You have to pic what style of case you want to have. A traditional case with dust filters or an open air showcase case?

the enthoo cases have a really thin vertical window which barely lets you see half of whats inside the case

the design is also not my style, with rounded corners and front that sticks out

 

the thermaltake case is made by thermaltake, so you can expect the crappiest materials from china

if i wanted an open air case like that i would buy something from inwin or lian li, who actually use high quality steel and aluminum, and tempered glass, not cheap chinese alloys

 

but i wouldnt want an open air case because of the amount of dirt/dust that could get in

If that's real glass on the thermaltake, then the thermaltake is WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY better.

I'm also not a fan of the look of phanteks cases.  I like the clean design of cases like the fractal define series and the nzxt s340.
