I've asked a few questions recently regarding this same build. I'm almost finished but i'm looking for one thing; a case under £50 that has cut-outs for cable management. So far I've been looking at the SPEC-03 and the 200R but maybe there's a better option. Here's my build;

Not a huge fan of the Source 210. I already had the 200R in mind so that may be the winner here.
UPDATE: nevermind you removed the 210. I'm assuming it's because the Source 210 has no cut-outs, which is what I thought.
What are your opinions on the SPEC-03 with the exception of it being hideous.

Found a build using the R9 280 in the Source 210. Seems to look fine. I think I'll go for the 200R anyways. My friend owns a 300R and the side panels bend and it just feels nasty. I'm not sure if the 200R is the same but because it's a really low budget case it won't bother me too much.
Thanks for the quick reply :) Might as well pick you as the solution because I think I've made my mind.

I've only seen pictures. Not seen the case for myself so it's hard to judge. http://imgur.com/gallery/1j9Zrwo This is the best picture I could find but the guy uses a 760 not the Gigabyte 280 :(
UPDATE: Found this but I believe this is an ASUS R9 280. Not sure how much of a difference it makes.http://i1150.photobucket.com/albums/o614/Jim_Rogers0101/23_zps223d9ff1.jpg
