New Computer Case

I am looking at now changing my computer case, preferably to either a standard ATX desktop or a HTPC Media Centre Case, however I have a slight problem in the fact that I have a Xigmatek hdt-s1283 CPU cooler, which stands rather proud at about 20cm or so.... what I was wondering is if any of you techspot frequenters know of any desktop style cases that would cater for my cooler, or if as far as it goes I am fighting a loosing battle?

Heres Hoping

The Cooler Master Elite RC-330 is a decent, inexpensive case that will easily have room for that cooler.

Hi once again Rage,

I had looked at that case, but for a midi case I also liked the look of the Thermaltake Soprano VB1000BNS (http://www.ebuyer.com/product/101931), because I do like the look of it haha, or the Thermaltake VA3000BNA Tsunam (http://www.ebuyer.com/product/105747) if I really wanted to save up and push the boat out haha.

But I was wondering also, if there was a desktop case that would take my cooler?
