Best PC Case for Under $70?

Daimyyyyoooo · Apr 22, 2016

I'm going to be building my first PC soon and I was wondering what case I should buy. As you can see in the title, the budget for the case is $70. I need a case with good cable management, plenty of space, 5.25" optical drive bays, and a neutral color case. I'm not trying to cheap out on the case, but my internal components are way more important than my case. I might upgrade my case in the future, but I'm not sure. If you can't keep it in the budget, I'll give you some room...say under $90? Thank you so much. I appreciate it.

To $70 Fractal Design Define S / Corsair Graphite Series 230T

up to $90 Corsair Vengeance C70

APEVIA X-Sniper X-SNIPER2-RD is sick looking case but dones't have air filters I believe and cable management is pretty bad

I dunno, I rather like the looks of this case. Looks good and has good airflow and decent cable management.

Alternatively, I would suggest the Antec 300 case. Very solid

Cable management is pretty bat in that NZXT case, it's pretty small, and if you have non modula PSU you're gona lose yourself in cables and motherboard standoffs are hard to screw in

ahhh okay, good to know since I was looking at that for my next case lol.

Phanteks makes my favorite cases. Very well thought out design and great features/quality for the price.

I would recommend:

I just built with the Pro-M and it's a great mid-tower case. Currently on sale for $75 with a $10 mail in rebate.

Fractal Design Define-S is also a great pick, but no 5.25 bay. Neither does the Phanteks Eclipse P400. So if you need an optical drive bay the Pro-M is the one to pick.

If you want an in-depth look at these cases, Demitri @ Hardware Canucks has some great video reviews on all of them. The case review list is here:
