I was looking at Corsair 500R, but it's a bit too expensive for me. I couldn't find any other cases with side fan mounts. Are there any which costs less than $100? I'd still like to know other such cases over $100 as well.

It doesn't seem to have a dust filter on the side, though :(

You'll likely need to purchase one separate, many cases that featured side fans were older and did not come with filters. My Level 10 GT has a side fan with a filter but it retails at $170... This is a significantly cheaper option

You could get a used R3 like mine. Comes with a 120 (or is it 140mm?) side mount. 

Custom pinewood case, Corsair CX 600W, Rampage 3 Extreme, i7 980x (@4.2ghz) with ML240 Cooler,  MSI GTX 970, 24gb DDR3, 240gb OCZ Tr150 SSD + 2Tb Seagate Baracuda. 

 

Advocate for used/older hardware. Also one of the resident petrol heads.
