What is a good cheap(ish) case?

Firix

I am trying to find good, cheap and good looking case for my first build. I am hesitant to spend more than £45 on a case. I have looked about and almost every case i have found has had something i don't like. For example, the NZXT Source 210 (and elite) dont have dust filters, and those cost £3-5 each on the web, and only the elite edition has USB 3. The BitFenix Neos looks good, but is supposed to be hard to build in... The S340 looks like a nice case, and has good reviews, but its over £50.

 

I'm lost, any help would be nice...

 

Thanks

 

EDIT: Please check on UK stores and dont use a price converter, because everything is more expensive over here :(

maybe the corsair spec-o3 and buy some dust filters later?

what about the silverstone kublai kl05? That seems like the case to get on a budget according to hardwarecanucks

Or the SPEC-01 which is a tad cheaper than the SPEC-03. They look good and well built for the price.

Unfortunately I really dislike what that design of case, it looks like a "wannabe gamer".

I have designed a PC that is around £700 and I want a case that shows that, bit doesn't make the price £800. Sorry for being annoying, but thanks for the input

Do you want a side panel window?

If not, there is the Fractal Design Core 3300.

(Sorry about the mobile link. I'm on my phone, and apparently the "request desktop site" doesn't work for that website.)

It has dust filters, and front panel USB 3.0. I also think it looks good; nice and clean.

I really like that case, but with shipping it becomes ≈£50. Any other cases with a similar design?? The simple/minimalist design appeals to me!! Thanks again

EDIT: I found it on Amazon for £40 with free postage. Also saves me money having to buy fans!!
