Hello guys, here i am again because i want to buy a new pc.I am looking for an inexpensive (around 85 dollars) case that will have good cable management, good airflow (2 fans included are enough for me), and a side window would be nice.
This case will house:
CPU: Intel I5-3570K 3.40GHZ -------------------------------217.86€ / 270$
GPU: Sapphire HD 6850 2Gb (USED)------------------------150,00€ / 187$
RAM: CORSAIR CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9 VENGEANCE 8GB---59.00€ / 73$
Motherboard: ASUS P8Z77-V LE-----------------------------169.90€ / 210$
PSU: Corsair Gaming Series GS600 600W-------------------77,50€ / 96$
And probably 1-2 HDD
And 1 SSD

Coolermaster Elite 430. Exceptional case for the money.

No to CM; the company has been proven to be dishonest, and a rational individual does not support dishonesty, regardless of quality.
Check out Rosewill's cases. They come with more than the minimum number of fans, and have good internal space. IMHO, their quality is also superior to CM.

Edit: Please note that the CM Elite 430 does not offer any cable management. If you can give up the window, get this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811147060 (note the promo code). If you really want the window, and can spend another $5, get this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811147107

Only ANTEC NINE HUNDRED ULTIMATE GAMER available in Greece
and only COOLER MASTER HAF 912 is available (both of them are pricey)

Rosewill is not available in Greece
 
Ah, I did not realize you were in Greece, although your use of euros in addition to dollars may have been a clue that Newegg would not be available to you.
If you post a link to the store you'll be using (if they have a web site), people may be able to make specific suggestions.
In any event, my prior remarks about CM stand. Pictures clearly indicate the Elite 430 has no cable management openings, and the company has been proven to be dishonest. What more is there to dislike?

Not the 430
The Antec 300 gets good reviews but I don't like the bare metal interior (spray paint I suppose :p)
The Antec one is also very good

I think i have concluded, and i will probably buy the Sharkoon T9 VALUE (3 fans included i think) i actually found it to be cheaper than the Sharkoon T5 VALUE (2 fans included i think) i was worried about the airflow but i don't think i will have to deal with any problems.
 
I did not realize you were in Greece, sorry about that :( .P.S. LOL!Wow how childish somebody thumbs down the cases i mentioned whoever it was please... grow the hell up i was only trying to help OP :pfff:
