Any budget cases with good airflow?

[Sat1600]

Anyone know of a decent budget ($40) case with good airflow? I have a spec-01 right now that I hate. 

 

I don't need RGB, windowed side panel (tempered glass or otherwise) or Psu shroud. I don't mind these things I just don't want to pay for them. PC sits under a desk. Nobody looks at it. Ever.

 

Things I do care about:

Fit ATX mobo

 

Good airflow( I have 2x120mm fans and 1 140mm fan I can move)

 

USB 3.0.

 

Decent cable management ( for ease of installation not aesthetics)

 

The spec-01 its falling apart. I usb port is already dead and the power button is starting to feel loose. Airflow sucks even with 2 intake fans and 1 exhaust.

 

Thanks

Slightly above 40, but the Focus G is a great budget case

Your getting good temps with it?

I don't personally use it, I've done a few of my friends' builds in them.

 

But yes, good temps- the front has a great mesh for airflow.

What are your specs and temps?

How are you determining that the airflow is bad in the Spec-01?

Have you tried contacting Corsair for a front i/o replacement?

1) I5 6500, xfx rx 580

2) gpu gets o over 80c during games that's with a more aggressive fan curve. 

 

3) case is out of warranty

Since you have fans you can move into the case, I can comfortably suggest the Cougar MX330. There's a solid side panel, tempered glass and an acrylic side window version so you can pick which one suits you best (ironically the solid side panel at times is the most expensive depending on sales.) It has everything you need and nothing you dont.

That looks perfect thanks

I have the focus g case and it's been great. Airflow is really good, it's cheap and cable management to me personally was very good. 

It doesn't have a psu shroud or rubber grommets if your after that but the mesh front panel let's tons of air inside the case
