Hello,

I almost have everything on my new build except the case, I'm searching for a microATX case with the best airflow sub $40.

The Fractal Design Focus G Mini is now on newegg for $40 which seem nice, but there is not much reviews about it out there.

Thinking about these:

- Fractal Design Focus G Mini

- Rosewill SRM-01

- Thermaltake Versa H15

 

What do you think? Do you have another option that I should consider?

these are the standard current designs, however they have waaaay more xD

 

im pretty convinced all of them are below 50$   sharkoon is a quite budget based brand and its average pricerange should be 30-50$ ;v

 

i know u say below 40$ so i come with my own personal recommendation

37euros    ( 43$ :v ) hope the 3$ dont matter xD

They have very limited airflow unfortunately, got other better options?

the airflow is quite nice actually on the M1000 o,o

 

Matx will always be more limited with airflow rather then full atx cases o,o ( unless ur going expensive :v )

 

its just a formfactor that doesnt allow too much fans on a standard case design :v ( talking about cheap now )

Fractal Cases have several to chose from that range at around $40 USD

I myself have the Fractal Core 1000 USB 3.0

There is a lot to list that meet your price range from Fractal. It will boil down to your need, mine [Fractal Core 1000 USB 3.0] is one of several.

I suggest doing a search on Amazon or in PC parts Picker and do a price comparison.

Does it have to be new? A used case might be a better option at that budget.

 

edit: spelling and grammar

This really helps indeed, my only problem is that there are way too many options that gets me overwhelmed, all I want is the best airflow I can get with minimalist design.
