I've made a recent topic comparing 4 different cases and I ended up going with the Tecware Alpha. Now, I've found its little brother, the Tecware F3 which is slightly smaller but has the same black + white theme I'm going for. I've listed the specifications as well as links to their official product pages and reviews.

F3 seems like more of a value entry-level case while seems like a decent NZXT S340 competitor. if you got the extra money than i'd pick the alpha but if you don't the F3 is a good choice.
