Last response: in Components
Share

Things it needs:
Side Window
Style
Cheap, (No more then $60-$80)
Great Cable Management - I'm using a modular psu
Mid-Size

And What color makes a better case look:

Red
or?
Blue

Thanks basically i've got these in mind but some have their own problems:


Cooler Master 430 Elite
NZXT M59 (This case kind of looks bad-ish)
Cooler Master Centurion 5 black with side window

Also for my cases, how many fans should i use, Right now im really considering the cm 430 elite a lot.

And i don't really have so many options

Best solution

Power supply Master

nAnd I really like the Coolermaster cases you mentioned. Very good for the price.

nI would recommend at the minimum a 120 intake in front, a 120 in the rear and a side fan for fresh air for the graphics card. I prefer an exhaust blow hole as well, especially for all in one type water cooling.

BTW, the NZXT Apollo is a nice looking case but it is a little on the cheap side and cable management is non-existent. I bought one for a mod for my wife and the first thing I noticed is the lack of cable management.

So I would look at the Centurion and 430 elite.
