I have the original Overture, and the only difference I quickly find is that they changed the PSU to a 450-watt and maybe used quieter fans.
I really like the Overture, especially the way they designed the hard drive rack in the rear of the case with its own dedicated 92mm exhaust fan. This really works well for drawing out their heat.
However, that Silverstone LC13 is a very attractive case.
I completely agree that the Overture is a really nice case. It has room for 3 hard drives, 2 optical drives and 2 floppy/zip drives. (Note: floppy drive bay cannot be used for hard drives though).
I bought a used overture off the forums at a really good price and really love the case and its quietness and the build quality.
For the overture 2, they changed the PSU, used quieter and possibly better fans and more air vents...thats the only difference that I see in the pics.
the other think i like about the Overture case is that you can virtually use any regular ATX power supply with them. Just pop out the one that it comes with and use your favorite power supply.
its a really nice case for anyone who wants to build a HTPC. I also have the Aria case which can also sport 3 hard drives and is equivalently quiet.
