PC case under $50

[Matt_Twinkletoes]

I'm building my first PC in March and I really don't know to much about PCs and I was wondering what case do I use? Thanks

Well, you'll learn that everything is not that simple in due time

 

What's the rest of your rig? Because cases depend on the parts going inside them.

As well as your stylistic choices, such as clean and minimalist or bold with lots of lines and angles and flashy accents.

Since its in March, maybe put some money aside and get something over 50$. Get something you actually like. You'll regret it in the future, I'll guarantee it.

Source 210 gets my vote, thing is solid with plenty of features.

NZXT cases: S340, Source 210/220.

CM N200 if mATX.

CM Elite 120/130 if mITX

size of mobo?

At $50 or less these are all pretty nice:

NZXT Source 220

Antec GX500

Rosewill Challenger

NZXT Source 210

Cougar Spike

 

The NZXT S340 previously mentioned is great, but it's $70 normally. It's a lot better than any of these five $50 or less cases I mentioned above.

Your missing the Corsair 200R....

I only listed cases that can usually be found for $50 or less. That one is $65 or so.

Hopefully the GTX 760 will go down in price a bit at the end of January with the release of the 960. The GTX 760 is probably the best match for an overclocked G3258. Good luck in the silicon lottery with the Pentium. I got mine to 4.4GHz stable on a pretty low voltage (1.18V vcore), so it was a monster running a PS2 emulator (much better at it than the Xeon I replaced it with).

200Rs prices are usually up and down, cheapest i'd seen is 40 dollars.

I love the NZXT 220's and 210's, and I'm using a 220 for my build right now.
