NZXT Lexa CS-NT-LEXA-BLR
$100.00
Released July, 2007
The Pros:Integrated temperature monitoring can be moved to display temperatures of your most important components (GPU, CPU, etc). LOTS of room for larger graphics cards like the ATI Radeon 5870. The stock fans are quiet and efficient.
The Cons:There can be a conflict of space with motherboards that have their SATA connectors on the side with the hard drive bays (Asus Rampage Extreme III). Hooking up cables to an installed motherboard is a bit of a pain due to length. PCI Express tool-less locking mechanism doesn't lock certain GPUs (Nvidia GTX470) down properly.

Cable management isn't great--things can get a little messy.
