Budget case

Yasin40

Hi guys

I'm looking for a new case

I want something for under 60 euros, with ample space for an ATX motherboard with a full size videocard, a larger air cooler or 240m AIO, 2 3.5" HDDs and a 2.5" SSD.

I'd like for it to have a PSU shroud, a (glass) side panel and most importantly good looks and airflow.

I know people will say to do my research myself but I've been looking at cases for days now, but I can't decide.

Thanks for your advice

Edit: a 5.25" bay for my DVD drive would be very nice

Coolermaster MB511 RGB hits all the check boxes, though it's technically 63 euro right now.

Focus G should support that

True, but (sorry if I'm being annoying) I don't really like the look of that case, especially from the inside. The drive cage is in a weird position and it doesn't have a PSU shroud to cover anything.

It does tick all of the other boxes so it might be a good option, thanks :)

A cheaper option that isnt as good build quality or has nearly as many fans would be the Cougar MX330. Technically this over is an acrylic side panel, but the MX330-G has a glass one (they look the same in photos) but it's 35 euros so a good value if you have your own fans already.

Corsair 175R should fit most of your criteria minus the 5.25 ODD.  It's a pretty compact ATX case, but can house a good amount of hardware including the front 240mm AIO.  Air Cooler will really depend on overall height for clearance of the side panel.  Feel free to let me know if you have any questions.
