Since the Lian-Li PC-V1000 and 1100 are not offered at the moment at Monarch for my computer, I did a bit of research and finally decided on the Antec Performance One P160. It's a good looking case with plenty of room to work with, a quiet design, and good cooling via two 120mm fans (only one is included with the case though). It's also only $125 which is less than the $190-$210 I had planned to spend previously. For more information, here's a great review from AnandTech. The only downside is I'll have to purchase an additional 120mm fan which should be 1600rpm and rated at about 28dBA.

Here's an updated price list:

Prices for the overall systems have come down a little bit, but not much over the past month. With the change in case, the price drops about $60 there and overall prices have dropped about $20 more, so a savings of $80 over a month - but the system will still end up costing a little over $1400. The price difference between Monarch and ZipZoomFly was only $20 last time I priced which was a nominal price to pay for the assurance that all parts will work when they get to you. However, that price has now jumped to $34. Still, not that much, but I can easily put this thing together myself and I can also route the cables the way I want and put my own touch on the system from the get go rather than modifying it at a later time. Since I still have a little bit of saving to do, we'll see what options open up at Monarch and we'll see how prices come down. Also, in the computer magazines I receive, there have been $50 coupon codes for Monarch, so that would just cement my choice if they still exist when I place my order.
