case recomendation

[frisky]

Hi,

I want an ATX case that uses screws.

Especially when I put a card in a slot there is a lip or tab that matches up
with a hole in the case's framework and you screw it down there.

Most cases used to have this but some new cases have other ways I do not
like of securing cards...

Can you recommend a case that uses screws as described. I know many cases
are "tooless" these days but I prefer screws at least in this "case".

Thanks,
Lee G.

Check out the Raidmax Smilodon. Entirely tooless except for the card
slots. The Mobo side drops down for easy installation.

The budget Antec SLK1650 is sometimes on sale for $5-15, after rebate,
and uses screws but can be opened without tools (unscrew two knurled
knobs to remove top, then side panels can be pulled off). However the
plug-in cards are held in place with regular screws.
