Go to solution Solved by WorldDominator,

I have a CM Storm Scout 2 case that I got for $80 ($20 off) with a $20 mail in rebate card coming in the mail anytime…I can't wait to buy my parts for it. It should do the trick for you I believe though if you catch it on sale. ^_^

My build needs a new case. It's my first build, "The Ninja", and these are the requirements:

1. It must fit my Seidon 240M with fans attached inside the case and without modifications. Clearly, if it's front mount, the heatsink needs to be able to reach the processor. My Shinobi fits the 240M after the mods, but the mods chopped the top panel up pretty badly. Also, I am growing tired of dropping items into the two uncovered fans, since the VRM heatsink and the RAM clips keep the fans from fitting internally with the radiator.

2. It must be under $100.

3. It must support ATX motherboards.

3. It must look good, or at least decent.

I know of the HAF 912 and the HAF 922, but they aren't the best looking cases in my opinion. Thanks for any help that you can give me.

Corsair 200r. A lot of my friends have it. I t is very good and has a good design. There is a 300 and 400r also so one of them should have  a 240 rad mount.

Thanks to everyone for the answers, but specifically to WorldDominator. I prefer that case, but the R4 is a close 2nd place. Again, thanks.

Found this for you. I'm jealous because the black one was on sale and I jumped on it but I wanted the white one instead.
