Hi,
I am building a new computer and I don't know which computer case to choose. There are hundreds of computer case brand and I need you guys help to find one for me.

Quality: My first priority
Looks: I don't care how bad the case look as long as it has good build quality.
Price: $50 is my limit

All i want is a simple case with good quality. I don't want those fancy one that cost $200. I have this case for my old computer. Its build quality is poor. The PCI holes are misplaced and those case edge makes hurts my hands.
Again, I am looking for a case for convienence that can let me add and remove hardware easily and good bulid quality that the sockets are exactly where they supposed to be.
Thanks for reading and sorry for the grammar.

Inwin and Enlight make some quality cases around that price.

Thanks for the reply. There are some nice cases there. I like the antec one and the Enlight one is not bad. One more Q: What do you think what is the highest brand out there?
