I know a guy who uses a painted and watercooled Lian-Li PC-P80 Armorsuit case. That thing is a work of art.
I think they released a newer version that has usb 3.

Awesome case, but pretty expensive.

Your right, very expensive, Why so much? It is over twice the price of the Antec 1200. There can't be enough difference to justify that kind of cost?
