Default asus p5e & silentsquare

i could not install asus silentsquare with the fan pushing the air
towards the back of the case
(heatsinks on the asus p5e mainboard are in the way).
i want an atx case with a psu mounted on the bottom and an exhaust
fans on
the back-top or top of the case.

must not be an ugly case.
what are my options?

Antec has things like P180, which has the PSU down low.

If you like "bling", they have one in a mirror finish.

Coolermaster Stacker has the PSU down low. This one has
two rear 120mm fans. This is bigger than your average case.

I've been eyeing those cases myself. The gunmetal one looks good as well:
