Best case for air cooling?

[Robotdinosaur]

I've looking around for cases for my new build and i want to know which cases are the best for air cooling.

I'm currently looking at these cases: define XL and the RV03. i would like to know if there are any other cases optimised for air cooling around the £100-£120 price range.

Im not a expert on air cooling or cases, but Im using An Antec 1200 gaming case, it works pretty well for keeping the components inside cool, its got a large 200mm fan at the top, 3x 120mm fans at the front, 2 rear 120mm rear fans. A 120mm fan can be added to the side panel if needed.

This is the one i've got: http://www.antec.com/Believe_it/product.php?id=MTEzMw==

There is also a newer version of the 1200 case (The V3)

Silverstone RV03 is the one, the mobo positioning is slightly different allowing the bottom 3 180 fans to feed gpus and push all hot air out of the case

What mobo sizes you going to put in it?

out the box i'd say the raven is best for air cooling. the rv03 has the psu at the front so you might run into issues if you're not using a standard atx psu. The Haf 932 is in that price bracket as well. HAF stands for high air flow so it should be good for air cooling, but doesn't have any dust filters so that's something to consider

ATX

The rv03 will be easy to get (120/140) fans for compaired to the define XL which has the unusal sized 180 fans in it but both are good for atx

Well if you don't care about a terrible mess of cables, the Antec Lanboy Air is 100% ventilated
