I have been looking on newegg and reading some of the post on the forums here and the commets on newegg. I have been looking for a full size case in the nore more then 200$ range and the ones that i seen on newegg and read about alot of people are saying that they are not built right or just that good. Looking to play online games and the case I have is a mid size one but all the wires are bunched up in the case and stored in spots that are not taken up. I really want something that will keep the system cool and really like the

I was reading some of the post on newegg and seems like a good bit of people have had trouble with the fans in them. Has your friend had any?

No he hasn't. When you take care of it, it is really good. I personally vouch for Thermaltake, I would of got one, but I got a no name brand (sort of) so I could try case modding and stuff.
 
Ok well thank you for the heads up have heard good things aabout both of those brands so have to look around and see what one will best suit me. Thank you for the help.

No problem, have you thought about self modding yourself? It is really fun and can get awesome results, just a heads up.
 
Wouldn't really know where to start I just know that i want a case that the power supply mount on the bottom and enough fans to keep everything cool. It runs right now around 41c idle and only seen it up to about 53c was the highest

Just so you know, its not always the more fans the better, well lots of fans is good, but airflow is what you need. Because if you have all the fans blowing in and nowhere for the hot air to go it will stay and not be good.
Equal amounts of intake and exhaust is best, but you can get away with a little more on either side.

EDIT: also 41c-53c isn't bad, mine is like that.
 
EDIT: scrap all of that, just realised what you meant to say, under $200. Look at lian li cases or thermaltake, both are good, lian li have better build and performance quality though and look hella good

The Antec twelvehundred is an outstanding case. It is big enough for just about anything to go in and the cooling is incredible. That would be an awesome buy. From the ones you have linked, that is the best
 
The Antec 1200 is amazing. I'm planning on building a computer in maybe a year or two and it's the only thing that I know for certain is going in that build. Haha
 
I JUST built a new i7 comp inside of a 1200 on Saturday. The cable management with that thing is awesome. There is absolutely nothing in the way of airflow. It's sturdy, huge, and comes with everything anybody could ever need.
