A good case for the money.

TYCriswell2

I have a GTX 960 SSC from EVGA with an ACX 2.0 cooler. An AMD AM3+ motherboard from Gigabyte Micro ATX. An AMD FX 4130 Quad Core. A corsair CX750m power supply. And 1 stick of 8gb of ram from crucial. Does anyone know a good case for the money in between 50 - 90 Dollars? The cheaper the better.I've been looking at the NZXT S340 and the Corsair 100r cases.

What kind of dollars are you using?

The S340 and 100R are good.

The Define S is even bigger than the S340 which is already a bit big being a mid tower for an matx motherboard.

Black/Blue

Black/Red

They have a matte finish

You could buy one and mask the black off and paint the red or blue (which ever you get) and paint them white

Yea go over with multiple coats (Let each layer dry before each coat)

Dont hold can up  close and go by sorta fast and go back and forward, Start spraying away from area before moving onto area to prevent little bubbles in paint
