Hi,
I'm building a new gaming PC and I have bought almost all components already but I'm still not decided about the case. I don't want it to be too expensive nor too bad in terms of cooling. I was searching via google and also on this forum but most of answers don't fit within my price category. I'd like to keep my new PC as small as possible so I'm looking for mini tower format only but I also want a good cooling and overall quality.
My requirements are:
-mini tower format
-front position for fan with dust filter (fan doesn't have to be included)
-top fan position
-bottom mounted PSU with dust filter
-price below 50 eur (cca 65 usd)
-(optional but nice to have) cable management holes
What I've found so far within my requirements:
Fractal Design Arc Mini
In Win Dragon Slayer
Aerocool QS-202 SE
Aerocool Qs-202
Cooler Master N200
What I've found that doesn't meet my requirements:
Fractal Design Core 1000 (PSU on top)
SilverStone SST-PS08 Precision (PSU on top, no top fan)
Cooler Master Elite 344 (PSU on top, no top fan)
Aerocool Qs-202 (PSU on top)
Aerocool QS-200 SE ADVANCE (PSU on top)
I think the Aerocool QS-202 SE is the best so far. It has everything I want with only one downside - it's older so it doesn't have USB3 in the front panel (but that's not deal breaking for me). What do you think? Is it worth buying or do you have some better suggestions?
Thank you very much for your help!
