Help for choosing new case

[Wirbelfeld]

I am having trouble choosing a good case out of all the nice ones out there. I am looking for a case that looks professional, not a case with intense leds with a boxy look,I would prefer a sleek look to the case, and should have decent cable management and dust filters. Functionality wise I am not looking for much else.

Im willing to spend around 100USD but if the case is really nice I wouldnt mind going up to (only if the case looks extremely nice), but not exceeding, 140USD

Location: USA

Size: Mid Tower or larger

 

Also it would be nice if the case looks unique compared to other cases at least from different manufacturers.

 

 

Thanks in advance!

TBH I dont like Fractal Design R series cases

IDK why its just a bit too boring. Id like a bit of design on my case but not boxy looking

Maybe I sound crazy

You're not alone. Their R4/R5 series look like a mini fridge to me.

I would say the NZXT H440 for the sleek design. The Enthoo Pro mentioned earlier, or a Corsair 450D. These are the ones I'm thinking about before making my own modded case, and the first two were recommended over the 450D.

I love the look of the h440 but I do need an optical drive bay which kills it for me. It's quite a shame since it looks so awesome

For a sleek and professional look, I would be looking through Lian Li and In Win Cases... They are on the pricey side but should fit your desires

If you really like the H440, why not an enclosure for your CD drive? Do you use CDs that often? (I only ask because I asked myself the same question and realized, "Hey, you know what ? No! I don't!")

 

H440, Phanteks Enthoo line and the R5 you don't like seemsto be the most loved at the moment.

 

Carbide 330R is also pretty minimal looking

thats pretty boxy 

I guess, but I've yet to see a non boxy case with a professional look to it.
