looking for full tower

im looking for a full tower case i was thinking cooler master 830 with all the fan spots built in, then i saw a thermaltake tsunami which is aesthetically pleasing. i need something with good airflow that looks good, has cable management and is $200 or less cheaper the better. id prefer to have a side windows as well. i also want something i dont have to mod.

started doing some more research and the silverstone cases seem to have good airflow and ran across this case

still open to suggestions

yes suggestions u need badly, this silverstone case ,, u see the "side vent" holes, that so needs to be cut out(extra work for u) and wat is that, only 1 120mm fan in the front tsk tsk no good...
this looks allright\/\/\/\/ this bad boy is my favorite, oh wait, i got one
im sure there r some nice midtower cases, with fan controllers and side panels that unclick instead of unscrew

That Azza Solano looks like an Antec case... Well, big and cheap = Thermaltake cases, mind you their functionality is not top notch. I'd recommend some lower-end Cooler-Master cases; Lian-Li also have beautiful and functional cases, altho they're not big on side windows.

I like the Azza Solano. MT Alex has one and it looks killer.

All fans are reversable..Just unscrew it and flip it around.

IMO it's the best full tower case there is. Lots of room, good cable management, great airflow, and the list goes on

i like the silverstone cases, i think that rv01 is nice but its a bit pricey so its a toss up between the antec and the rv01 at this point
