I am planning to build a new rig by next Saturday.
The config is more or less final.
Its a i7 config (LGA1366) with a Corsair H70 cooler. Gpu will be a GTX 480 ( and a GTX 580, though i dunno for how long it will stay with me ).

Almost all of the HW has been finalised except the cabby.
I have 3 choice :
HAF 922
HAF 932
HAF X

Budget is not an issue, but i would not like to spend unnecessarily i.e if the HAF 922 would give me more or less the same cooling / airflow as the HAF X then i would prefer to buy the HAF 922.

Do keep in mind that i will have to fix the H70 rad inside the case, so do suggest accordingly.
 
HAF 922 is more than sufficient.
However if you like to often upgrade your computer components(keep changing hard disk,HSF,rams etc) HAFX is the way to go.
 
I would suggest get a HAF X as its a full tower & XL-ATX cabby. Also the airflow is better than HAF 922 as its an updated version of HAF 932. The H70 with two fans in push pull config & the radiator will fit comfortably inside it. But keep in mind to install it in the opposite orientation compared to as suggested in the manuals. This will give a better cooling performance. gud luck with ur build
 
Future is USB 3.0. HAF922 does not have one. Its better to go for the latest models rather than going in for a old one. Though i own a HAF922 i would recommend going in for HAF-X. Its a monster man... hell a lot of space inside...

A better price-performance trade-off is the NZXT Tempest ~ 5.7K pre equipped 6x 140mm fans, plenty of cable routing space, support for E-ATX boards :) makes the situ win win in my views VFM and plenty of space

I see since to get a USB 3 HDD you still have to pay 1500 bucks just for the cable :P
