What is the best case under $70? The one I am thinking of getting right now is the corsair 230t, but I was wondering if there was a better option for the same price, or an equal one for less. do not recommend anything over $70 no matter how good it is. it should come with three fans, or the fans will need to be added to the price cap.

may I ask why the solid $70 cap?

 

the HAF 912 is a solid high airflow case

I am at my very max budget, and anything worse is another area would be BAD.

The Enthoo Pro for $29 more. :P

The HAF 912 is a very good case for its price, and seems to fit your needs. You really don't need to overdo your case, it just has to be solid and with acceptable cable management and airflow unless you want to liquid cool or something.

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨

so far the 912, 230t and ghost look nice, the 230t and ghost are nicer, but cost slightly more. would the source 210 (elite or non-elite, please give info on both if you can) be good? its pretty cheap and seems ok.
