Hi guys, as the subject says, I dont know which case to choose, I like the lian li cause the space and the fans keep the air moving within the case, and the 800 D  is all black and cable management is superb, and painting the lian li is 500 usd :S

Any advice will be well received.

Thx in advance

id leave painting out as the color of something is pretty far away from mattering to performance

Lian li and the Corsair 800D are both good cases. I prefer the Corsair b/c it has the side panel display. The dimensions between the two are not much different.
 
For $500, I would invest it into something else like liquid cooling, GPU, or a monitor, but it's your preference.

The HAF 932 has much better air flow than the Hailstorm (Corsair 800D), has just about as much space, and is $276 (!!) cheaper.

Ditto and ditto compared to the Lian Li, and is $334 (!!!) cheaper.

Please, spend your money wisely, and simply avoid both of those.

yikes
 
the lian can come close to supporting that cooling without heavly modding it
even the hailstorm will have one of those radiators hanging off the back of it
 
id suggest you have a look over the buying guide in my signature

Bah, I'm gonna have to bow out of this thread, those kinds of configs will give me an aneurysm.

Just.. at the very least do yourself a favor and don't select those terrible old Nova SSDs. Select a Corsair Force or Intel SSD instead, either of which have like 10 times better small file performance and similar or better GB/$ prices.
