So I'm deciding to upgrade to a new computer case. I currently have a Thermaltake Level 10 GTS  (note it's a GTS, not a GT) and I don't really like it for several reasons. To start, I can't mount the H100 that I bought in it :( . Another huge flaw that I have with this case is that it has 4 hotswap bays, but only one place to mount hard drives internally. I don't really need hotswap bays and half of them don't even work... But now I want to upgrade to something different and I have been trying to decide between a few cases. So, tell me which you would suggest!

 

Case

Corsair 750d

Corsair 650d

Corsair Air 540

NZXT Phantom 530

 

I'm also open to other case suggestions. Typically I like simplistic looks (hence all the corsair choices), So I'm open to things such as Fractal Design or Bitfenix cases. Any help would be appreciated!

750D or Air 540, if you want something unique.

+1 on the C70. Has great cable management and has lots of fan mounts.

Preferabley, airflow (I think silenced optimized cases are cool, so I'm open to looking at them)

Window

No door

750d would be my suggestion, then. The 540 air looks cool, but only if you're okay with a lack of air filters. The 750d just looks gorgeous. Also, if you plan on using an optical drive, stealthing might be pretty fun.

Yeah I think the 750d will be my choice, I'm leaning more towards it.

+1 for the Corsair Obsidian Series 750D or the Corsair Carbide Series Air 540. Both are great cases but if you want to maximize airflow then the Air 540 is the way to go.
