Does brand matter?

[Brace]

I'm looking for a full tower case and there are so many different brands I'm getting confused if brand even matters. So should i just find one that has good specs and looks good or is brand gonna reflect quality. (btw i have around 160$ budget if that matters.

English please?? If I understood right i meant like customizability, ports, and airflow.

Phanteks

NZXT

Fractal Design

Cooler Master

 

I'd go with something from them

I put Phanteks quite a ways above everyone else.

Brand isn't essential, but I do have preferences. I like Corsair cases as they tend to be made for people who build PCs and therefore have everything laid out for that purpose, their build quality is above average and they look really nice, and they have cases with some of the best airflow.

 

My 450D is beautiful, was easy to build in and when I crank up the fan speed my VRM temps instantly drop substantially. Its only flaw is that its a dust magnet.
