The 800D is a monster! I was pleasantly surprised to see they developed a mid-tower conversion.

Yeah, my favorite style is still my current Lian Li with curved edges on the front. Here are some pics from when I painted the inside cages and set up my first water loop. (Yes, I quickly ditched that ridiculous rear radiator )

the hot swappable on the last one is sick toast for a mid

Personally I have not found any other manufacturer that can match lian li's fit and finish

Best of luck with the new case Patch
I don't have a broad experience with a huge variety of cases, but from my limited experience I agree with you about Lian Li quality.

While still available at a few fringe places, the PC9 and PC6 are no longer made. I came real close to getting the PC-Z60, but the black innards, cable management, flap to cover front i/o panel, HD dock on the top, and the ability to remove 1/2 of the hard drive bays without a dremel are making me favor the Corsair right now.
