Heh, I actually deleted/edited my blurb about cases, as it's so easy to get carried away with so many options.
One thing I would add, and this is just personal pref, is to consider a case with handles on the top. It makes moving it around so much easier, especially if you have a large case with lots in it, or if you need to move it often for various reasons like frequent upgrades, cleaning, whatever. I agree with all of Biz's points, very important stuff that's easy to overlook. Corsair makes a decent case with rubber spring loaded collapsing handles on top, and Cooler Master makes one with fixed tubular handles that run the entire length of the top of that case. Both good options if this feature interests at all.
Corsair C70, Cooler Master Storm Scout 2, or for a little more $ the Cosmos SE, all have great handles built in, and fit into most if not all of the criteria Biz spelled out very well. I have a Corsair 780T for my 5960x built, it's full size, while the others I mention that I have (The Cosmos and C70) are more larger mid sized cases, the Cosmos being a bit taller than the C70, which is fairly large for a mid sized on its own. If you really need/want a full size, for the $ it's hard to go wrong with the 780T if you ask me, while not having dedicated handles, the top cover overlaps and makes it real easy to grab and heft about, even though it's larger and heavier than typical cases (mid sized). Very well built and designed. As Biz mentioned, you can often tell by weight how solid the build of the case is, and the 780T empty is nearing 30lbs, and full is well, well over that, and feels as solid as a tank. (Snatch Quote - Weight is sign of reliability...I always go with reliability...and if it doesn't work, you can heeet him with eet).
I've had excellent luck with both of these companies, but cases are easily the most subjective thing out there, even with all the good points Biz has made, there are dozens if not hundreds of options out there that meet those requirements IMO.
