I never saw the attraction in those big transparent cases full of LEDs... it's comparable to fitting neon lights underneath your car in my eyes. As long as I can get inside my case easily and it is spacious, a plain black box (or even beige!) is fine in my eyes

I agree.
It is not the transparency or the neon that I like about this case - it is the steel frame, giant fans, rugged almost military look. If I get it I will definately run it with no lights in it.

I agree, but the cases they produce now are better than the beige ones which were the norm when I built my first one about 14 years ago! What I tend to do is have my PC and keep it relatively up to date - It's due a few replacement parts niow but as I'm working away I can't really justify the expense. Whatever I upgrade, the old part goes into one of the kids PC's.

How noisy is it with all those fans? The white noise would drive me bonkers.

Obviously I can't speak for that case, but fans don't have to be noisy if they're well-made.

If you're interested, I can list my spec, for which the parts come to about £2500.

That's well outside my budget (I reckon £1000 max considering I have monitors already) but I'd still be interested to see what you built for that kind of money. I assume you must have some specialist components for that kind of cash - top-end graphics card or some fancy RAID system perhaps?
