PC case recommendations please

[Arixl]

Frist time building a PC so I'm wanting a case that is more first time friendly nice cable management to look neat and glass side panel, don't really care about RBG lighting and i won't want to spend more than $170 i was thinking about getting the NZXT S340 Elite but i don't know anything about cases.

S340 Elite is a very nice case. The h700i is too just it is much more expensive.

I've heard great things about the Meshify C. It's not an expensive case by any means and it has great airflow plus a tempered glass side panel. You can watch Gamer Nexus' review here:

I guess op won't mind - there is hole to see through - should be enough for most cases under the desk...

it's a nice case but by the time I buy it as pay for shipping it would be about $200 (AUD) which is more than I'd like to spend on a case.

AUD is important, as many of the cases are more expensive in australia

Lets see, from this list we have

 

Meshify C. Good all around choice in every catagory. There's also the Define C TG that has a solid front panel that trades a bit of airflow for noise reduction.

Phanteks Enthoo Pro M TG. Seems to be out of stock, but if it comes back, something to look at.

S340 Elite/P400TG. Good cases, but they has meh airflow, so if youre putting anything warmer than an i5/R5 and an RX580/1060 in it, your thermals will get too warm.

Corsair 460x. Good looking case, decent airflow and features. Another solid choice.
