Cheap PC-Case recommendation

Hello Guys,

I need your help: I want to build a PC but I have'nt decided on a case yet. It should be relativly clean looking so not the typically "extreme gaming" look. Furthermore it should have bay for my optical drive in the front. It should also have a sidepanel with a window in it so one can see my cable management. Speeking of with there should be enough room for cables and sleeved cable extensions. The Pricing should be between 50 to 100€. 

 

So if any of you could kindly suggest me a case I would be very glad :)

No optical drive :P 

Oops missed that part.

 

 

For the most  part if you want a clean PC with a window with a more of a modern look than a huge "GAMING" pc, 9 times out of 10 you'll have to drop the optical drive. Unless its like a special drive, you can pick up a portable USB one for the same price. If you haven't ordered the Optical drive yet, I'd get something like this:
