Decent case for $100?

[adamb10]

So 2 USB ports on the front of my Antec Six Hundred case broke and Newegg offered me a refund. So I've been thinking of maybe going for a different case. Do you guys have any suggestions for cases for around $100?

Thanks.

Antec 300/900
CM 690 Advanced II
One of those CM HAFs

Antec 300 - $50

HAF 932 or AZZA 1000

Agreed. I'm not looking for a case, but this one (and ver. 1 for that matter) always gets good reviews. I've had ver 1 sitting here in the box for three years!

I think you posted this in the wrong forum (probably wanted cases & cooling).

That being said, this webpage says it all: http://www.newegg.com/Store/SubCateg...s&Order=RATING

Pick any of the top 12 (most of the ones mentioned above are there). If you are negative on Antec due to your 600 experience, then go for one of the Coolermasters. But the Antec 900 is a classic - it was way ahead of its time...a little dated today, but amazingly it's still the #1 rated case.

If I were buying today, I'd get the CM690 II linked above by jjmIII, based on reviews and looks. Just checked, and there are 25 CM cases with a review of 4.5 or above. Says a lot about their quality (I use one for my HTPC).

I just picked up this:

Thermaltake Dokker. Its a nice overall size with good space inside - fit a 12.5" long graphics card and a large HSF for CPU. Tool-less and a spot built in for a 2.5" SSD (although its hard to screw in - I just used one screw).

I like this one:

(almost bought that for my new build instead of the 932.)

Coolermaster CM-690 II, or HAF 912.

if you only need MATX the NZXT Vulcan is pretty nice
