Yeah, I actually splurged a little extra on my case so the one I got had rubber covered holes inside the body and a hidden panel on one side to hide all the cables.

My new Antec 900 has something the other 2 didn't have - a mounting slot on the bottom of the PC for a SSD. It also included some silicone grommets, which is handy, I guess, for mitigating the vibration from a component with no moving parts... but it was a nice touch nonetheless.

I'm using a cooler master storm stryker, it has all of that, plus 8 built in fans (and 3 extra fan slots) removable filters, twin SSD slot. X-dock in front. Fan speed controls on the case and shiny lights because shiny.

So it looks like if you build a config and save it, and email it to yourself using their site's form, you get a coupon in a few days. So, something to know if you go with them.
