So Im using a buddys HP Pavillion case right now and I want a sort of lan box to take to my friends houses or something in general that is portable, so my budget is gonna be 70$ for sure maybe 100 if im lucky (Birthday Money) And I have my eye on a few cases here are the links:

So My needs are a micro atx case and something that can fit a Gigabyte GTX 1060 G1 gaming and a 3.5 inch hard drive thats why im excluding mini itx cases. Overall i need something with a 5.25 inch bay 1 is fine but 2 is good and standard atx support around 100 or less, used isnt really an option, Thanks for the help!!!

An actual reason (not "because corsair!") Is the high airflow you will get. 

yea but its inportant to me to have 1 5.25 inch bay and at this price point i dont see it fit to buy it but high airflow makes sense and it has spacious 3.5 and 2.5 bays

Quick note, I love my inwin 301 (matx) Its got a 3.5, 2 2.5 and a tg side panel for a mere 70 bucks.

 

(Inwin 101 is the same but with ATX)

yea but its not something that i can throw around and scratch(not saying im going to abuse my case but acidents happen) and its not very portable imo and it dosent hae a 5.25
