But, since I'm new to pc builds I want to ask you guys that have more experience than me to give me a good list of cases for begginers.

I don't want small cases but not too big. First i went with the Corsair 200R but it only had usb 3.0.

Price max: 65€

I live in Portugal so that's why I want a list so I can search for more options.

Thank you for reading. ANY questions please ask.

I put together a build for about the same price (including the 65 you allowed for the case):

What do you mean by it "only" had USB 3.0, what were you looking for? Also is the 200R the size of case you're looking for or would you want a smaller mATX case like a Cooler Master n200?

Weird... I was sure I posted earlier. The reason cases don't have USB 3.0 headers on the back of the case is because the 3.0 ports will be on the motherboard itself. Make sure the board you get has USB 3.0 ports if you need that feature, the current one you have selected does not.

I would recommend the NZXT Source 210 Elite. Has good cable management, decent build quality, and nice clean aesthetics. You really can't go wrong with it for the price.

I found that your motherboard of choice has no USB 3.0 so i had gone and found a case that has no USB in the front I/O and is not o small but just perfect. here you go :D
