A good budget case brand

[dornick]

What brand do ppl recommend for a budget case around $50? The more features, the merrier. 😀

Best values in a case with out a power supply:

Compucase 6A19 for $36

Evercase 4252 for $37.46

Both of these cases have good air flow and are nicely constructed.

If you want something with a power supply, do a Froggle search on Antec SLK3700. The power supply is a little weak but it should do for most standard systems.

Good luck.

thanks for the suggestions... that evercase one looks pretty nice

I've used the above mentioned cases; they?re ok but they feel kind of cheap. I'd recommend this InWin, it's more expensive but you do get what you pay for.

Thanks, keep the suggestions coming. I've become convinced that tool-less features are the way to go (besides ventilation of course) so if anybody knows of anything good, I'd love to hear about it.

I receintly bought a Compucase 6919 for $45.

It's larger than the Compucase 6A19 and is very sturdily built. It takes a 120mm fan in the backboard, rubber grommets to damp hard drive seek noise, and a filter behind the excellent breathing front bezel.

Good stuff.
