I recommend this case: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811112154 for it's simplicity, standard quiet fans, tool kit, and quality. You shouldn't cut your hands while installing the board. I also like the side facing hardrive cage so the cpu heatsink doesn't interfere with mounting the hardrives. I always install the cpu/heatsink and ram before mounting the board.
