Antec 1200 PC Case!? Empty

Should I get it? Been reading up on the 900 today as Newegg has it on sale, with instant $40 off, $20 mail in and free shipping for a total of $59.99, and after looking at it in depth I noticed the 900 Two and is far better features over the 900, but its $119.99 atm,and w/ free shipping too. Now granted this isn't entirely necessary that I know of so far, but all the reviews thus far point to massive amounts of cooling and airflow which is always good for a gaming PC.

The main reason I'm considering this case is because of the GTX 480 I'm planning to get later this year and the amount of heat it produces, so a very good airflow would be required.


Anyway, here are reviews of the two cases:

Antec 900




Antec 900 Two



The thing I greatly like about the 900 Two, is that there are holes already there for sleek cable management to help with airflow that the 900 is also capable of, but from other personal reviews I've watched...you have to drill those holes yourself, which I dunno if I have the tools to drill through steel. Its also just slighter larger too, and about a 3/4 wider than my case that would help even more with the huge heatsink I already have.

Decisions....decisions...

I would go with the 902. Its better looking, and even if you dont have a water cooler, you have the necessary holes (except the one on the mobo frame). There are more dust filters, and I think he said that there was tooless frames on the 902.

As a side note, he has an interesting accent. Seems like he has a bit of a problem with r's. He kinda says Rwodney Wendolds. lol

There's also the one that's a step up from the 902! The Antec 1200! http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129043&cm_re=antec_1200-_-11-129-043-_-Product

It's the one I have! Keeps everything nice and cool. It's a beast though lol

Hrm...damn myself for wanting really cool stuffs! The Antec 902 alone is already gonna cost me $130 with cable extensions and dividers, so was thinking might as well go all out and get the Antec 1200...maybe, which costs $160. Still deciding though, but here is a video review of it and others showing it off:
