Best case under $100

xKr1Sx

Hi! Which cases under 100 USD do you recommend? I want it to have:
-At least 1 glass panel

-RGB

-Good cable management potential

-At least 3 fans (preferably with rgb)

-Good airflow

At this moment I don't have AiO, but maybe I'll buy one (probably 240/280)

Generally I want a good looking case with RGB, good cable management options and good airflow. Can you recommend something? I have one case that I'm looking at rn: From a basically local brand - SPC Armis AR5X. It has 4 not bad RGB fans, 2 glass panels and it costs like 85$, I want to know if it has good competition from 'worldwide brands' like Cooler Master, Fractal, etc. 

Thanks for all your answers! :D

Idd go for the mentioned corsair. Nothing super special but solid case and better quality than the Raider  (wich looks like a crosair rip-off)

It's very similar to the Corsair 460x/465 in terms of aesthetics and airflow due to the properly positioned front fans. It looks pretty decent to me.

Corsair Spec-Delta is solid for under $100, and includes RGB fans that can be used with 12v 4pin onboard RGB headers included with some motherboards.  I'm also going to suggest the iCUE 220T RGB Airflow.  MSRP is just over budget, but you can probably find a deal under $100 through one of our retail partners.  This case uses a Lighting Node Core for software control of the lighting of the fans.  Chassis is the same size as Spec-Delta, just different front panel design and RGB fan control.  Let me know if you have any questions about either case.
