Best sub-$60 case?

[SteveGrabowski]

What do you guys think is the best sub-$60 case? My main concerns are:

 

1. Room for a 12" video card

2. Cooling

3. Cooling

4. Cooling

 

I don't care how the thing looks. It could be covered in pictures of swastikas, penises, or My Little Pony's for all I care, as long as it cools well. I think the best option I have seen is the Cooler Master HAF 912, since I can slap a 200mm intake fan in the front, use a 120mm intake in the side, and another couple of 120mm exhausts on top. Anything better in that price range? I mean I know there are cases that look a hell of a lot better, but that's not a concern since I'll have the thing sitting on wood under the desk.

Best case.

Corsair 200R? 

 

I was looking at that, but I'd rather have much more air coming into my system than a single 120mm front intake can bring in, being that I'm running an R9 290 in Texas.

Oops, that would help, wouldn't it? LOL

NZXT Source 210 Elite (White) ATX Mid Tower Case

 

Yeah, that's a really nice case. I think I have that as my third choice, with the NZXT Source 220 as second.

The CoolerMaster N200 is a great case for it's price

Cases covered in swastikas aren't good for anything.. including cooling.  However, put a well-hung Little Pony on it instead, and it'll work like a charm.

I like that it has lots of room for intake fans, but the video card being so close to the power supply is a little concerning, especially given the amount of power a 290 uses (about 220W or so average while gaming).

Best case.

 

Wow, that should be killer for cooling with dual 140mm intakes and without all the stupid 5.25" bays (I think I use my DVD drive about once every 3 months). I can't believe most cases today still come with 3-4 5.25" drive bays of wasted space.
