Looking for a new case.

Hello all.  I am about to be heading off to college and I am looking for a smaller case to use. Currently I am using the Thermaltake Level 10.  Its a monster and quite frankly it has become to big and flashy for me at the current moment. I also had to have my PC shipped over from Japan when I got stationed somewhere else and it's kind of.. damaged currently as well. I am looking for maybe something mid-tower like. Such as a C70 or a 550D. I won't say 'no' to a full tower again but I would perfer something more sleek. Right now I am on not on a really tight budget.

NZXT H440, Intel Core i7 6700k @ 4.5GHz (H90 AIO), MSI 780Ti, MSI Z170A Gaming M7, 16GB Corsair Venegance LP DDR4 @ 3000, Corsair RM750 PSU, Samsung 840 Pro (256GB) 2x WD Blue 1TB drives in RAID 1, 1x Seagate Barracuda 2TB,

It looks like your components don't color match a ton so non-windowed it is.

 

It really is dependent on what you mean by sleek, but personally I think Fractal's Define R5 is quite sleek. I'd wish that Corsair made a non-windowed 450d because that would do it in for me.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

I have the ThermalTake Versa h22 mid tower. It can hold an ATX motherboard and has good expansion. Beware it can only hold 1 120mm fan but there is a massive vent in the top and warm air travels upward so y'know. My parts stay cool.

Silverstone RV/FT05? The nzxt s340 is a good choice, as is the define R5 if you still value a full size optical drive.
