While others respond with brands & models, I offer a few pointers:

1. Tall tower - Taller the better (unless you have space restrictions);
2. Either fans preinstalled or areas suitable for fan inserts / mounting;
3. Screwless access, e.g., Thumbscrews;
4. "Tight fitting" panels (quieter & cooler operation);
5. Castors - having wheels on a full-size tower is a treat ... I roll my box out from under a overhanging desk! Very handy.

I have an Inwin fullsize tower; 6 Panaflo Whisper fans: 4 x 120mm, 2 x 80mm: 2 front, 2 left side blowing onto motherboard; exhaust fans top and back. Large box has seen me through 4-5 AMD systems.

Pay the price, i.e. "You get what you pay for."

Good luck.

browse to your hearts content

That's the mid tower section, you can also navigate to the full size and baby atx form factor cases. NewEgg decided to categorize by color, which makes picking out a case so much easier. Gawd I love those guys!

Here's a link to the power supply specs for those interested. I'm not all that saavy when it comes to these things, so hopefully one you "power" guys can fill us in on the details good/bad.
