Antec 300 Illusion Vs NZXT M59

[pumakrieg]

I can get the NZXT M59 for $40 right now and the Illusion for $60. I'm just torn between the two and can't decide, and i can't find a site that reviews both of them so i can get a better idea either. I plan upon ordering on Monday, so i would greatly appreciate some good answers as soon as possible. If anyone is wondering about the rest of the specs, they are posted in the New Systems Build under the $900 build.

Thanks

Here is a link to a very good web site with a technical review of the NZXT M59:

The site did not review the Antec 300 Illusion but there is a review of the Antec 300 which should give you some basis for making a decision:

The Antec 300 is one of the most popular mid-tower cases for gamers on a tight budget.

Still wasn't able to gain any info to point me one way or another from those reviews, but I would think at $20 more the Illusion is still a better deal with two more fans. I thought i read that the Antec Three Hundred could be found for $50 somewhere as well. Anyone know where this is?
