Which case is better?

I'm looking for a white / blue full ATX case with plenty of room for fans, cooling, multiple hard drives, and possibly SLI video cards (with an upgrade to a full ATX SLI-capable motherboard). Which is a better quality unit?

Personally , I like the looks of the Inwin.

Honestly, the InWin case clearly has more airflow than the BitFenix case you linked. Also the blue window looks cool. Too add, I had an InWin case in the past, I can confirm they make quality cases.

Just from Financial perspective I would select the InWin and even on looks as well.

I also have to agree that the Inwin one would be the superior one in terms of cooling, however if we go for looks.. I would definately choose the BitFenix one.

So if I get the In Win case, is it safe to paint the black grills blue if I wanted to? Or will that void the warranty?

A good thumb rule to keep in mind is any altering with the original product would probably void the warranty..

That should be safe but really cases barely break so hardly a warranty claim unless you get it broken in the beginning.

OK, so I could get the In Win case and keep it as is until the warranty expires, then I could mod the case a bit. With the extra features like the fan control switch and that extra hard drive bay thing on top, it looks like I could benefit more from this one. If I get an extra SSD for an alternate OS, such as Windows 7 or SteamOS, is plugging the hard drive to the above bay and booting the OS from it as easy as it sounds? Could I interchange HDDs on the fly if I want to for loading digital movies and stuff?
