Case that looks professional but has a gamer edge

[smeeg126]

I am looking for a case that looks professional, has awesome cable management (I hate a messy case!) is relatively quiet, but that has enough airflow for gaming.

I have been looking at the Antec P183/193, and Fractual Designs XL. The XL looks awesome, but it doesn’t come with USB3 jacks on the front, and the case doesn’t align with the component slot in the back for my motherboard (P8Z68-V PRO), you have to buy washers to raise it up. The Antec looks okay, but doesn’t have all the cable management that the XL has.

Any other ideas? I am leaning towards the XL, just want a second opinion.


Here is the system I've already bought, just need a case for it!

Motherboard: Asus P8Z68-V Pro
CPU: Intel i5 2500k
GPU: HiS 6950 2gig
RAM: 8gig g.Skill PC12800
Storage: SSD: Crucial M4 64gig, WD Black 1.5gig
CPU Cooler: CM 212
Power: CM RS-700 (700w)

Few cases follow the trend you look for, but others to look into include the Corsair Carbide 400R and the (expensive, but extremely good quality) Lian-Li Diamond PC-Z60B.

This one might not be a bad business/gaming case. Good quality without the flashy style:

Hey 13thmonkey, I saw that on FD's site too, but cant find it for purchase anywhere!

that Lian Li LanCool looks cheap on the outside..that Corsair 400R is sharp looking though, I like the sliding power panel cover!

Thanks for the reply's everyone

From a South African seller: http://www.nivo.co.za/#buy~lian.li.diamond.pc.z60b.mid.tower.chassis.black.silver~p25908

Should find it on either Amazon, eBay or NewEgg as well though. I'd be surprised if you don't. 😱

Silverstone raven cases might have what you're looking for. There are a few varieties like the FT02B and the RV02, RV03, a few more.
