I have recently put parts together for my new PC and I'm struggling to find a case the I like and that has a lot of good features. My maximum budget is around £80

Here is the build:

I would really like rubber grommets for cable management and room for a 240mm water cooling rad for later on.

I have a black and red theme build so I would like the case to suit this sort of colour theme.

Thanks in advance :)

Have you bought the build yet? If no, get an i5 4460, h97 motherboard, and use the saved money for a better GPU.

for the case I recommend Corsair, antec, NZXT, Fractal, Design, and Bitfenix.

Thanks for the ones you listed I liked the BitFenix ghost but just a bit too minimalistic. I found this one its a bit more but it any good?

The H440 is a good case but has ZERO DVD drive bays.

I suggest you look at my suggestions for your system as you can get better performance for the same money you are spending.

as said its a good case but no dvd rom space so if you are planning to use a dad rom then you have to use an external one.
