Doing a ryzen 5 build with a 1600. I have a semi modular tx 650w psu.

 

I would like a case that has a clean design for under £50 which is about $70. Prefabably something that ebuyer.com sells.

 

Requirements:

Would like rubber cable grommets.

Behind motherboard ssd mounting.

Space for 3 hard drivers + 1 ssd.

Windowed side panel would be a nice extra.

Dust filters that are fairly easily removed and replaced is also a must.

I like the Phanteks P400s but it's the same deal with the 3.5" bracket.

NZXT s340(original) is a good one.

Phanteks Enthoo Pro M. You need a separate bracket for a third 3.5" HDD but it has everything else... The full window version is a bit more expensive ($90-$100) but the partial window version is $80.

Ok. I'll see if ebuyer.com has it.

Currently the case i have in my basket is the p400s :). I'll keep this in 1st priority at the moment, thanks.

that's £70 not £50. I said $70 or £50. I suppose i could save an extra £20 as the Fractal is a really nice case. Thanks for the input.

I have a couple of NZXT S340 cases. For the price I cannot find anything bad to say about S340 NZXT. 41.78 (real time currency conversion to euro) That is $50 US. I just ordered a P400 Tempered glass non (S) silenced model $80 (£60.72). According to my research Phanteks is based in The Netherlands. Was also looking at the Fractal Define S or Define C case £ 68.31  (Sweden) both have perfect reviews on newegg.

 

The other suggestion is one of the Thermaltake tempered glass cases but that costs a little more coin than your $80 budget. 

 

This (£) is British Pounds Sterling. Not just pounds.

Yeh i really do like the s340 also but the cheapest i can find it for over here is £68. So no where near the  41.78 you paid xD. I am tempted by the p400 also.
