NZXT S340 and Fractal Design Define S come to mind. There's also a few cheap Corsair cases.

I actually built in this case not too long ago. The whole Core series doesn't look too shabby and is fairly cheap. So yeah.

 

No great features though.

I'm just asking if the exact board won't run into certain compatibility issues like the 3.0 USB issue.

I haven't decided on the motherboard yet since new parts will come out before I have the money for the pc all I know is that it will be an atx form factor
