Sharkoon case?

Im biulding a budget Gaming pc, but im not sure if ive got the right case for it,

 

Im thinking about the 

Sharkoon VG4-W Rood

 

Because it looks good it isnt very expensive and i think its big enough,

 

Is this a bad choice and if so what other cases do you recommend - I would really like to have one with a window

Sharkoon cases aren't great tbh.  Can you post the rest of your build, and what your budget for a case is?

I've build in that case and it's not great to be honest. Build quality is pretty bad and internal layout is just ok. If you can spend 20€ more on a case then I would advise the corsair spec-01: http://tweakers.net/pricewatch/377296/corsair-carbide-spec-01-red-led.html

This is my full build; (my budget is about 700 dollar which is 650 euro)

Kingston SSDNow V300 60GB  - Solid state drive Corsair CX500M - Power supply Crucial Ballistix Tactical BLT2C4G3D1608ET3LX0CEU - Memory Seagate Desktop HDD ST1000DM003, 1TB - Hard Disk Intel Core i3-4150 Boxed - CPU (processor) MSI B85-G41 PC Mate - Motherboard Cooler Master Seidon 120V Ver.2 - Cooler MSI Radeon R9 270 2GB GAMING - Video card

 

Total: 608.37 euros

 

So I have about 40 euro to spend on the case

 

And then the case...maybe

Sharkoon VG4-W Rood

DO NOT get a Kingston V300 SSD.  They are notoriously bad.  Also, I'd save a bit more to get a decent case.  Trust me, you do not want to be spending $40 on a case, it'll be a total piece of trash.

Which drive one would you recommend?

Go for something like a Crucial BX100.  I'd get the 120GB model, it's around $70.  You won't be able to fit much more than your OS and some commonly used apps on a 60GB SSD.
