I can't really recommend any cases that I've never used, but HardwareCanucks on YouTube has reviewed a lot of cases, lots are around the price point you are describing.

 

Other brands to consider are Enthoo and Lian-li, they make good cases.

I used to be quite active here.

If you like sleek designs, the Define R5 is absolutely stunning. It has all the features you'd need and want, and looks gorgeous.

 

The Noctis 450 is also really amazing for a good mix of sleek and badass.

 

From there, pretty much anything from Corsair, NZXT, or Fractal Design will probably be your best bets. They're all great companies, and you definitely get what you pay for. :)

Oh yes! Phanteks as well! They have really amazing cases. I tend to forget about them sometimes due to the fact that they kind of came out of nowhere.

 

While I'm at it, throw in Lian Li cases. Most of their best ones tend to be pretty pricey, but even their cheaper cases tend to be pretty good as well.

 

Personally, I just find NZXT, Fractal Design, and Corsair to be my favorites in terms of features and aesthetics, especially in the $100-150 price range.
