PC Case Advice

Go to solution Solved by antisleep,

At that price? Aerocool Aero 1000 by far. I got to take a close look at the case itself at a local store and I won't even think twice picking it over any corsair carbide case - 300R/200R/100R.

 

Most of those saying go with Corsair are from North America where Aero-1000 prices aren't competitive (@$80-100 USD) but other parts of the world it's a lot better value at <60 £/€/$.

 

For £51? It's a steal:

+nice aesthetics

+3 case fans included

+2x USB 3.0 front I/O with support for USB 2.0

+rubber grommets

+plenty of storage space

+modular HDD cage

+complete dust filters: top(magnetic), front(filter and plastic mesh cover) and bottom are all removable

+tall case feet, though plastic still a plus

-space behind motherboard tray could be wider but not a nightmare to deal with

 

Other issues like build quality, having plastic front panel, non tinted window, etc are negligible at this price point.
