Other than Li Lian cases... pricey but hard to choose from, just to know my options for my other ATX builds when I need cases.
What I like is well made drive cages that allows me to fix hard drives and SSD solidly, not plastic stuff. HP was brilliant with these but i/o plate is part of case metal, not removeable. Had to be 7 slot, not the mini-ATX junk as I had enough back then with last purchase of Asus H81-M, not again!
No window pane, not dumb design case with PSU on bottom and not even any giant vents on top case for loose sitting stuff to fall through.
If Acer was still around, I'd keep buying HX45 cases forever.
I had an decent case with metal rails that snaps in with side cover that swings down from top on it's hooks at bottom and pull straight out. Had to pull upper front bezel slightly and undo rear upper thumb screw to release the side cover. Unfortunately, I did not realize to go back and recover nice case from former work (was being closed down and moving all the stuff out).
I did see same case again years later (recently) on ebay once but was built with expensive cards in (only the difference, rest of PC hardware is typical), and was selling for over 4,000. No thanks.
