Show Us Your Rig [6]

Guys buying a new casing "today" hopefully. Cant make up my mind between these two:
This once costs almost 93$ Cooler Master: N600

And this one costs almost 104$ XIGMATEK - PRODUCT
I am a big fan of the second Xigmatek Talon case but the first one is cheaper and i like the full black look of it also. So which one should i go for??

Of those two, I would say get The Xigmatek. I personally don't like either one. The Cooler Master mounts the HDDs in a Michael Mouse HDD cage. You have to disconnect all the HDD cables, remove the cage, and partially disassemble the cage to add or remove a HDD. You don't have to deal with that Baloney Sausage with the Xigmatek.

The Cooler Master has easily removable dust filters; I can't tell if the Xigamatek has filters at all (and I even downloaded the manual, which, itself, was woefully in adequate).

The Xigmatek has better wire management opportunity. The idiot HDD cage of the Cooler Master puts all the drive cables right out in plain sight (what the heck were on when they designed that abomination?).

The Cooler Master looks better than the crazily tilted Xigmatek (hello, Pisa called and wants its tower back) but that idiot drive cage negates that and all other advantages.

Wow,didn't notice any of those things,glad i asked. And i bought the Xigmatek Talon for 96$ with 2 extra 120mm Orange w/white LED fans. It is great. Such a nice feel to it. Best in its price range i would say. Lots of space,easy to use too. My back hurts from taking the stuff in and out all day. Anyways,some pictures:
