So it seems the cheaper cases don't come with swappable expansion slots, instead they come with punch out ones, which i HATE.

i had problems fitting my 750 ti in an aerocool gt black advance, and the retailer wouldnt take it back, also i had to pay fo the return fee which was 7 euros.

so instead i sold it and lost 6 euros.

 

But therefore i would like to ask if u guys know a good quality case with the good expansion slots and cable management options behind the motherboard.

please keep the price under around 50 to 60 $, since here in the netherlands everything is around 20% pricier. ATX by the way

 

Thnanks as always

What size motherboard do you have? If ATX then I would go with the Corsair 200r or the Corsair Spec 02. I personally have the Spec 02 and its a pretty solid case for its price point.
