As you can see, I already have the i3, the motherboard, 4GB of RAM and a 2TB HDD. I need help picking up a case. I would prefer a $50 case, but I can stretch my budget to $70.

I know I could maybe get better hardware with my budget ($800 or so) but I live in Costa Rica and I need to add at least $150 of shipping and import tax. BTW I am open to suggestions if you think I could swap some parts in this list. Thanks.

I am voting for the NZXT Source 210 Elite. It is a great budget case! Otherwise, for a bit more, I would suggest the Cooler Master HAF 912. I have worked in both and both are great cases!
