bout that time to start for a new one again.  I had and older antec, but it's an old top mounted power supply and only has USB2 ports.  I generally prefer something simple and pretty plain looking, but I'm more concerned with the cooling performance.  Anything it does to help quiet the power supply is a plus too (I have a very nice, but slightly older corsair 870 watt - louder than most).

My requirements are:  Mid size tower, USB 3.0 connections, bottom mount PSU, large enough to hold 11" (280mm) video card (nVidia 580 / AMD 6970 sized) - abilty to hold up to 12.5" (320mm) cards is a plus though

I think my current front runner is the fractal design arc midi: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811352007.  But there is a lice looking Lian Li that's pretty cheap: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811112304.  I'm not sure I could get past how fugly the In-Win Buc is http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811108395, but it performed quite well in anand tech's reviews for both cooling and quiet, that and it's cheap.  Of course if I want cheap I could always get another rosewill.  http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811147061
