I am looking for a computer case that could house the following:

Microsoft Windows Professional XP
KN9 SLI Motherboard NVIDIA nForce 570 Chipset
AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 6000+
3.00 GHz, 2.00 GB of Patriot DDR2 RAM
PCI-Express nVidia 8600 GT (Factory Overclocked)
Audigy Creative 5.1 Soundcard
700w Gamer Powersupply

I am looking for a case that uses fans, not coolant. I am having some trouble keeping the computer cool when playing high end games like Call of Duty 4. So any suggestions?

Antec 900. Everyone has one, which makes it boring, so dont try to bring it to any LANs.

But the antec 900 probably has the best for aircooling. I have one, works outstandingly.

I've just posted in your other thread, it may not be cooling at all, but if it is the 900 is a well cooled case.
There are however many other options:
Antec P182
Coolermaster Stacker
Coolermaster Centurion
Thermaltake Tsunami
NZXT Lexa
NZXT Zero
NZXT Hush
Just to name a few...

I've already got one. I prefer my NZXT Lexa though, the hard disk cages are poor imo.

Yeah unfortunately I have to agree on that one, hard drive cages suck and cable management is a bitch. Well at least it is for me.
