Hello, I'm planning on building a pc for school programs as well as some moderate gaming, this rig is mostly something to get me by till I can afford my dream rig, I have gotten all the parts layed out besides one, the case. I would like a case for 100$ or under, and It needs to be stylish, I dont really care if it looks to gamer-ish as long as it doesnt look cheap. Heres my rig, feel free to leave suggestions. My preferred color scheme is black and blue or black but anything will do, thanks!

Heyyo,

 

NZXT source?

Yeah pretty much.

The NZXT H440 In black and blue is smexy!

https://www.nzxt.com/product/detail/143-h440-performance-mid-tower.html

Oops... H440 is over $100. :P

The NZXT S340 is ok too

Otherwise? If you don't care about optical drives? The Fractal Design Define S is amazing.
