Well Lanboy has front and rear 120mm fans, cavalier has a 120mm rear, 80mm front. In looks department, the cavalier exterior is a lot lot better. However the big downer for me is that the cavalier innards are made of painted steel and look ugly. The lanboy is all aluminium. This is the deal breaker for me. If you can stand steel inside, its okay then. The cavalier is bigger than the lanboy so if expansion capabilities are a question, then cavalier is better. Finally take a look at both in person if possible and then decide what you want ;).
 
The cavalier appears to have a 350 W power supply... will that be enuf?

And Lanboy has no mention of PSU at all.
 
Well i am getting both for 5k without the PSU... Now How good is centurian at 3.4K without the PSU with a windowed side panel...

@Chaos one ting you forgot about centurian... Its a screwless design... Also cavalier is bigger then Super LanBoy...

Centurion is a sad case.... very cramped inside! Though it does look decent.

Well in that case centurian and cavalier have both equal dimensions... I beleive the only difference between the two is the Front... Every thing else is exactaly the same... I can confirm this cause i have seen both in person... Hell i have even installed two centurian's myself... The steel feels damm solid and the case is damm heavy...

I havent seen Super LanBoy in person... How big/small is it as compared to Cavalier...
 
Super Lanboy any day ! If you have used an Antec, you will stick to one. Thier cabinets just r0ck !

Super Lanboy because if the Aluminium finish, BLUE Glow, 120mm fans, Good looks.

Also the Cavalier is HEAVY (Read : 10.4KGS) while the SL isn't more than 3~4 for sure...
 
Its just a tab bit shorter.

A Few drives days lesser. 2 to be exact.

Id advice you to go for the Lanboy. Aluminium looks great plus Air Flow will be a lil better coz of the 120 mm * 2 fans opposed to the 120 mm * 80 mm.
 
Super LanBoy much better than CM Cavalier , ne day.
Reason one front 120mm fan and one rear 120mm fan.
Light weight.
Nice front blue led fan.
 
^^ Look who's talking ! Arent you the same Quad who was against the SL as it was too cramped 3 months ago :P ?
