Iv been trying to fine a nice mid tower case for my build that also fits my needs but cant seem to find anything. I recently got a Asus Maximus VI Extreme because it had a nice rebate and felt like I should get it. The mobo also comes the a OC panel so you can monitor your computers performance, overclocking, etc. I was planning to go with the NZXT H440 but it does not have any External 5.2inch drive bays. I want a case that has drive bays but has nice aesthetics. Im leaning towards a black and red case with a side panel window, I also need the case to be in the ballpark of $100. Oh and I dont want to look at the nasty power supply that im planning to get so I would like PSU to be hidden or covered.

It shouldn't be a bad PSU by any means, I just don't like looking at a PSU in my case. I'm planning to get a Silverstone Strider plus 700watt. https://pcpartpicker.com/part/silverstone-power-supply-st70fpb

If you have any other PSU's that you know are reliable id be glad to hear because I dont know a ton about them. I just dont want to break the bank with a $100 or more PSU.
