    The Storm Scout is probably the best case in my opinion out of those, but I'd recommend something different. Could you specify a budget range?

    They should all house your components comfortably, including your 6870, which I know is a huge card.

    Depending on the orientation of your HDD bays there might be a tight squeeze with cabling between your GFX card and HDD, but this can usually be resolved by switching your HDD to a different bay.

    The only issue is that you're spoilt for choice!

    He means spoiled. He's jealous of the choices you have.

    Vouch. I have a HD6970 that is quite a bit larger, I suspect. It fits.

    Hi there.

    Try the NZXT series of cases.

    The Phantom is my favorite - I haven't posted enough to post links, but google "NZXT Phantom" and you'll get an idea of the case.

    This is my personal favorite and my current case. If you're worried about air flow, worry no more. Huge amount of space, modifiable and can hold pretty much anything mobo wise.

    I hate to admit it, but the second probably has *slightly* more cooling performance.
    But despite this, the Fractal Design-case is a lot more quiet than the Coolermaster likely would be.

    The full sized case isn't that much more expensive. Fractal Design Define XL.
    But yes, that's an amazing case.

    That's actually the version I have sitting next to me. I sometimes get startled when I realise I'm sitting by it, since it's inaudible.

    As can most any other full tower case. Plenty of other full tower cases are also built sturdier, have better airflow (bigger fans as well), and just don't look all alien-gimmicky. The Phantom seems too plasticy to me, tbh. But hey, personal opinions are personal opinions.

    And besides.... the OP seems to only be looking at mid-tower cases, which knocks the Phantom out of the question.

    What is with you and noise? O.o
    Surely there is a furnace/air conditioner in your house?
    What about cars outside? What about people talking? :P
    I should come over and bring my drumset and rock out at your house. ^.^
