can anyone recommend me cases that only cost around $25-$50 and have good cable management? i already know of the cooler master n200 which was my first choice but were all sold out at my local stores so you guys can just leave that case out. i have had problems ordering online in the past so i tend not to anymore. i have went on pcpartpicker but i dont exactly know where in the specs will it say that the case has good cable management. im looking for an itx or atx case. can anyone help me out? thank you.

Im using Zalman Z11 PLUS.
Big enough for ATX, cable managment is good and if you are using modular power supply you will be able to hide all the cables no problem...
Loads of fans, including two exaust fans for hdd!
Looks - you will either love it or hate it...
Price - 59.99$ after rebate

Hope thats help...

PS. Would be nice and easier if you told us what are you going to do on you computer, is only cable management important for you? Are you planning to play games, need fans, looking for led fans, any colors, price range etc.

I have the Z11 Plus as well, though the cable management isn't as great as he described. With mine, fan wires go across the entire motherboard, and the cables I have for my Corsair TX650 V2 power supply need to get really jammed in there for the back to fit.

That being said, it is a cheap case, and will fulfill all your cable management needs, but I'd probably get it a 7 or an 8 out of 10.

I use a Bitfenix Alpha from Amazon and have no problems with it. Plenty of ventilation and comes with one rear fan. (I did put black gaffer tape along the edges where the two side panels fit JUST IN CASE they vibrated.) Would certainly buy another if building a new desktop again.
