Cases like the NZXT H510

[Its N8 M8]

For the pat 3 months I have been looking to buy the NZXT H510 case, but it has been out of stock the whole time.  I am finally ready to order the final parts for my PC and the case is still not in stock.  Does anyone know any cases that are in stock and look pretty similar to it along with a relatively same price point (max $100)?

Thermaltake makes some similar cases, and if you want to divert from the design a little you can try some from Corsair and Cooler Master.

@rapidkillerx check amazon I just sniped the last h510i black case.  The white and red are available in non i, along with i versions.  I believe a black non i is available but priced the same as a i.  id act quick.  Be wary though some wont come till july.  The one i ordered will come in june so just keep that in mind

Terrible case with terrible airflow 

Look for something like a p400a or a 300a or a meshify c

I originally thought that too. A negative pressure case does not sound like it would work, but it surprisingly does.  Minus the dust it’s alright (I personally clean my PC often to it’s fine with me).  Yes it doesn’t have amazing thermal performance, but it’s average. It will get the job done on most builds. High end overclocked builds would be better off with one of those cases you mentioned, but for a midrange build it will fair well. Gamers Nexus did some testing on the H500 (which is the h510 with different front IO) and its gpu thermals we’re actually pretty good while the CPU thermals were “meh,” but acceptable. 
 

TLDR: It won’t fry your system and it’s not a hotbox.  It’s an average case for thermals.

Have you considered Fractal Design's Define lineup of cases?

Lian LI 205 is similarly styled but has better vents for more airflow. If you live near a Microcenter you might be able to snag it for $70
