I don't know any off hand, but a feature I would look out for: floppy drive trays. There are all sorts of card readers and USB hubs and other cool gadgets you can put in one of those!

Yes, it's 2871 as in the year 2871. I traveled all this way, back in time, just to help you. And you thought your mama lied when she said you were special-_-

thanks, have you ever heard of the Thermaltake View 27 Windowed ATX Mid-Tower Case - Black, is so, is it any good?

Not my kind of case, personally. I prefer mid towers with a side panel window versus a whole wing. Best advice I can give for a case: Find the options you need (USB 3.0, 5.25"/3.5" bays, etc.) and find the case that looks best.

Before you pick one, make sure the case isnt the size of an EATX case with 10 PCIe slots (full tower). I have a mid tower that is the size of a full tower. Make sure the drives go in sideways rather than front and make sure its light as from experience a heavy case is painful to deal with.

 

I have no recommendations of any particular model but all i can say is make sure it is easy to maintain and not too big or heavy.
