What's a popular BUDGET case for a mATX setup?

Ive got an mATX i7-3770 System in an old Antec Full Tower that i'm thinking of selling.

 

It'd probably be much more desirable in a more modern case, but the only ones i know much about are more premium cases and it wouldnt be good value to buy one of those if selling the system

 

Any thoughts on nice cases that would sell easily? Also same question for the cooler, its got a stock cooler on it at the moment and figure if its going to have a transparent panel i'd probably want a nice cheap cooler for that too.

Rosewill FBM X1

sub 25$, acrylic window, black interior 

not much to say about it, it's a cheap Matx case but from my personal experience with it, it's an OK case, it's definitely a cheap case but I'd recommend it to people on a budget 

This is exactly what I was going to say. Typically goes for around $25, and it's Rosewill, so the build quality falls into the "decent" category. There are also a bunch of DIYPC cases on Newegg for sub-$40, though I think they're mostly mid towers.

Aerocool DS are the best fans you've never tried.

I’m surprised nobody asked, what’s your budget?

Fujitsu Scaleo C, the best looking case on the market. Although good luck finding one.

Q300L is around 30-40$ USD, glass side panel and lots of airflow.

as stated, dont have a budget as such. just needs to be good enough that it's a system someone would want to buy, but cheap enough that i don't lose money.

 

spec wise we're talking i7-3770, 16GB DDR3, 1050ti, SSD+HDD so it's not worth much in the first place, just nobody wants to buy a "low-tier gaming PC" that's in a broken Antec P182 case

 

I'm thinking H500, but then that's still a fair amount of money, and no RGB
