I am building a $600 PC in a month. I have saw two cases I like: Corsair 200r and Rosewell Line M. They are both upgradable for the future. Now, which one would you buy?
 
The Line-M is an micro-atx case, the 200R is fairly compact, but it fits ATX MoBo also. Be careful!

I like the 200R better, but on your budget, the correct answer is whichever leaves you more money for more GPU 🙂
 
If you want microATX, then grab Cooler Master N200. If you want ATX, the 200R is good.
 
+1 for the 200r. Built a box for my pops with the 200r and a mATX mobo. I had to change one of the mobo stands/pegs (comes setup for ATX I guess) and everything else went in perfect. Great case. My PC has a 300r (just a little bigger, also great).

FYI: if you are getting the 200r and installing an SSD make sure to get an SSD mount/cage because unlike the 300r you will requre one (for a nice/neat/easy install). I was lucky and the 840 I purchased came with one (I didn't realize I needed it nor that the 840 came with it, as I never thought about it).

Actually with the 200R you can just snap in four 2.5" SSD/HDDs above the 3.5" HDD cage without any tools. If you look closely at my photo you can see the Samsung 840 EVO installed above my 3.5" hard drive.
