Affordable cases with side fan

Fatih19

I'm looking for something under 60 dollars with side fans. Size is mid or micro tower. Certainly not ITX or full tower. I already have my own fans so it doesn't need pre-applied fans.

Main Rig :

Ryzen 7 2700X | Powercolor Red Devil RX 580 8 GB | Gigabyte AB350M Gaming 3 | 16 GB TeamGroup Elite 2400MHz | Samsung 750 EVO 240 GB | HGST 7200 RPM 1 TB | Seasonic M12II EVO | CoolerMaster Q300L | Dell U2518D | Dell P2217H | 

 

Laptop :

Thinkpad X230 | i5 3320M | 8 GB DDR3 | V-Gen 128 GB SSD |

Do you mean side fan as fan on the side panel?

Yes. I don't need tempered glass or acrylic. But I'm looking into the possibility of having side panel fans.

I know that Golden Field makes a lot of cases with side fan mounts, but most of them are very budget oriented (around $10 in China)

Some of the old Fractal Design Core 1000/1100 have mounts for a fan on the side panel. Ive had one of those for my personal build. Its a bit cramped, but it still worked great! You got 1 mount in the front, 1 back, and 1 on the side panel, so positive pressure is accesible. 

EDIT: also forgot to mention that the front panel often have a built in dust filter!

 

EDIT 2: Some of the cases in the Fractal Design Define series doesnt just have mounts for fans on the side panel, they also have built in sound proofing here and there.
