Looking ForAura Sync Compatible Case/Chassis

[Omikse]

I am in the middle of a new build and I am trying to find a PC Case that is Aura Sync Compatible at about 100 to 150. I know it is not easy but I am trying to keep my budget down. I have looked at a few but not happy with the prices I am seeing. I have tried googling and youtubing it but I am not having much luck so I am asking ya'll for help.

I am building an RGB system. I am trying to get all the components as Aura Sync. So far this is the hardest thing to find at a low price. I have looked into the 570X but I am worried about all the glass and the ease of animal fur getting through the gaps of the glass. But if I can not find a better case at a better deal, I my end up going with it or maybe the 460X

I'm gonna give you a friendly heads up that Asus Aura is absolute trash. Avoid it at all costs. I had the same plan but Aura doesn't even show my motherboard, and half the time my GPU's won't adjust with the software without locking up and crashing. Keep that in mind.

You are one of many who says different. I can not say as to why things happened the way they  did for you but I am sorry to hear that things went bad. I still plan to build an RGB system so if there is anyone who can help instead of saying don't do it, please point me in the right direction.

He is right the rgb software no matter the brand can be buggy,The corsair software for just my mouse half the time won't even show the mouse i have.What all do you want rgb the fans or lighting strips made in to the case ?A lot of the fans use their own controler that plugs in to the front i/o usb jacks.The asus aura is more the motherboard lights maybe ram and if you add any rgb stripes to the headers it has.Most motherboards are lucky to have 2 rgb headers so if you tried to plug every fan in to it youll need a lot of spilters.I would go for the case that you want and you can always add rgb fans and lights to any case on the market.Your budget is a lot of case from the in win 303 to a thermaltake view 71 or even a lian li alpha 550 or the redesigned pc-010 whenever it comes out.Or even the fractal define r6 which comes with no rgb tho.

Thanks for the feedback and I have looked at all those cases but they are more than I want to spend. I am trying to keep my pricing for a case from 50 to 120 which there are a lot of good cases and it is really making it tough to choose the one that reaches out and grabs my attention. I will not go with Fractal Design because I find their cases to be boring and unimaginative. I want to go for a case that I can see all that I have done and have a wow factor after I am done. I know that I can go for one of those old see through cases but I find  them to be boring as well. As of right now I am looking at the Cooler Master H500P. I like the looks but I would have to do some modding to it to give it better air flow which I found an idea from a thread here: 

and also a video from Gamer Nexus: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=2&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwi2v5DbqvPYAhUC7GMKHYpgCOYQtwIILzAB&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DsAzAO9VQPmI&usg=AOvVaw0jpYnYg-aevSqQF3e9qTn3 Unless they put out the mesh version in the next month. But I think I might mod it myself because the mesh version will probably be more than the non-mesh version. Any thoughts on that?

Dont waste your time, Cooler master is already fixing it with a future revision.

The unfortunate part is I may not have the money when they finally decide to do so. Maybe they will offer just the front panel when they do release it for those who have already bought the non mesh version. All this is going to be paid with my tax refund which I am hoping to get some time in February and if I don't get it then, I may not be able to after.

Most likely they will not offer the panels separate. Why would you not have the fans in a few months?

I didnt mean to say fans, I meant to say money. Sorry I'm having six Case conversations at once today haha. 

 

To recap; Why would you not have the money for the case in three-four months?

My tax return general goes quick as we catch up on bills, any repairs to cars if needed, and other stuff. Even though I have a job, by the time I get my pay check and everything that we can is paid out, I usually only have a couple hundred or less in my account till the next check. That money needs to be save for anything that might come up (something that is a priority) so spending it on a case is not feasible. Plus I don't build a new computer that often since of course prices are very high now a days. My last build, which is in my signature, happened three years ago and only cost me just under 900 and now my son wants a gaming system for himself. So because of that I am building me a new system and giving him my old one with a memory upgrade form 8 GB to 16 GB. So timing is everything to me right now. Hence getting the case now instead of waiting. If I don't do it now, that money will go to something else.

Thats fair.

 

You could get a Meshify C now, a very similar but overall better quality case, and use the money saved on the difference between the two cases to buy RGB fans!  Alternatively, the Phanteks Enthoo Pro M SE edition comes with RGB fan grills that are Aura Sync Compatible

Maybe the Phanteks since it is close to the h500p but not the Fractal Design. I am not keen on them. A little to ordinary for me.
