So I have my build, my first ever custom computer, I put maybe 1000 dollars in it so far but I kinda cheaped out on the case i have a Cooler Master 410. This case is gross I really would not recommend it to anyone, sorry for those of you who have this case. Now I think I need to upgrade this case and I have about 80-120 dollars to spend, I was looking at the NZXT H440 or the fractal Design R4, which are silent optimized cases, other than thouse I am stuck maybe you guys can lead me in the right direction thanks!

In all honesty, go with what you enjoy the most. The H440 and the Design R4 are both great cases.

 

My advice would be to go on a website like Newegg and bracket your price range, specifications, etc - then you can choose from most all of the cases. There's very little out there for bad choice now a'days - everything acts relatively the same.
