What case would you recommend?

[Kami675]

Hello everyone, I have finally solidified what the internal parts of my pc will be now I just need a case to hold it all together. I have around a $150 budget for the case, the only other stipulation is that it must have a side window. I don't care about the case size as long as everything I have on my list will fit, this will be my first build so easy cable management would be preferred but not a huge deal breaker.

obvious reference to the fractal design R5 here.

- sleek design (nothing unnecessary added, it doesnt even have a fractal logo on it)

- easy to build with

- options! ALL the options! (seriously, a year after my build i was still finding things the case could do )

- front and bottom fan filter

- top vents can (and honestly should) be closed.

- pretty dang modding friendly, if you're into that. (seriously, if the mobo tray being rivveted in scares you off you're not a modder)

 

you could go for the define S as well, if you're sure you wont be needing the 5.25" bays.

just toss the watercooler in the front, power supply fan side up or down depending on your personal preference, lots of cable management space, etc.

Honestly, any ATX case will work fine with that budget. Maybe look at something from Phanteks, Corsair, Cooler Master, Fractal Design, NZXT. All of those companies provide high end cases that will satisfy all of your criterea
