In my previous dual socket mobo setup I am using a Blackhawk Ultra by rosewill.  It's a great case but I was wondering what other options I had for a similar price (roughly 180 USD) as well as great air flow.  And man I love the wheels you can attach! So convenient to have a giant case on wheels!
 
 
 
I was looking at newegg for super ATX cases and none of them really seem to be that great (besides the 900d, but that's a bit out of my budget for case) and not aren't many options to choose from.
 
 
 
 
So I'm here to ask if anyone have any case recommendations for dual socket motherboards.
 
 
 
 
The specific dimensions of my motherboard are 12.0" x 13.0" in case that's important or not
 
 
EDIT:  Doesn't necessarily have to be super ATX, full atx will do I suppose as long as it's great for a dual socket mobo with 12 x 13 dimensions

    The xigmatek elysium is pretty good apparently. Though good luck finding one, they were discontinued a while back.
    Xoxide has the no window version for $215: http://www.xoxide.com/xigmaetk-elysiumcase-nowindow.html but their site is down for maintenance right now so I can't say it will still be in stock when they come back online. 
     
    Otherwise, that rosewill is still great, I don't see any real need to replace it as the better options are up around the $250-350 range.

    I've heard incredible things about caselabs on several occasions. They only make the highesty quality type cases, and work very closely with customers when determining the needs and type of case. All metal. Modular, cool, easy to assemble, durable, etc. They're kind of expensive, but you get what you pay for. I'm sure they'd have something for your scenario. http://www.caselabs-store.com/
