Budget Case That Fits My Needs

Qu9ke · Dec 22, 2013

Hey, everybody! I have been looking for a ATX mid-tower chassis for my relatively soon-to-be rig, but am at a slight standstill. I know for a fact I'm getting a 3.0 usb flashdrive for Christmas, and would love to fully utilize that by getting a nice value case that supports my mobo and all that jazz. My soon-to-be mobo is the Asus m5A99fx pro r2.0 which has 2 3.0 ports in the rear, and 2 of them midboard which I assume can be used for the front of a case? I picked that mobo to leave my self much extra room in case I decide to upgrade some stuff. Anyways. If they can be used in the front, that would be excellent. I am willing to sacrifice having 3.0 headers on the case if the case is of excellent quality and has great cooling. Having said that, I still prefer the idea of having 3.0 ports on the front for easier access. As for the price, I am ideally going for somewhere in the $50 range, but am not so stingy that I can't go up another 10 or 20. I was originally looking at the CM Elite 311 which looks nice, but no 3.0 on the front. I tried looking into the Elite 311 plus, but I can only assume they are discontinued. The Zalman chassis from the AMD budget build thread was apparently 24.99, but has gone up significantly. Anyways. Help would be appreciated.

This case should work:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?nm_mc=AFC-TechBargains&cm_mmc=AFC-TechBargains-_-NA-_-NA-_-NA&Item=N82E16811147184
This one is a little more expensive:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811855002
