SLI Case choices...

I'm gonna' take the jump to SLI in a couple months and I don't think my venerable Antec SLK3000B is roomy enough for the job. So, current SLI owners tell me what case you are using and even better, show me some pictures. I am very paticular about wiring and air flow so a pic is truly worth a thousand words in this discussion.

I have no real price cap but I do have issues paying more than $125 for a case, but I could be persuaded. I would like to avoid aluminum so I can miss out on resonance and noise. And not too huge, but again I can make exceptions for the right case. So help me out guys, what should I buy?

Greetings,

I'm not sure that I understand how you would need more room for two video cards? The motherboard is still ATX, and the 3000B has plenty of room...sounds like an attempted rationalization?

I've got 3 hard drives and the way the drives overhang the motherboard it has been a hassle getting one 7800GT in with cable management, let alone 2.

Pictures would help.

Are you using PATA or SATA hard drives?

You can get a big case like the Antec P180. But you PSU cables may be stretched to their limits.
