Hi.

I'm looking for a low-cost case, that does not include a power supply.

By low-cost, I don't mean cheap, but I do not need aliminum, steel or plastic
will do. I do not need flashy plastic windows either.

Just a case with plenty of room for the cables and to keep things cold.

Thanks.

Just go here, pick your requirements including price range, and pick one that looks good to you. You can click on the pic and see each case inside and out, front and back to get a complete idea of it.

One thing though, I'm pretty sure all Mid Towers will be around the same size, and all Full Towers same size... Check for fan mounts. One or two in the rear, one in the front at least. I prefer one on the side and one on top as well. You may not need all that.

If you want great cooling, a case with 120mm intake and exhaust would work very well. I like the Compucase LX-6A19, for $39. + shipping. NewEgg has it too, but its a little more $ there because it comes with a psu. You can get it in black at Coolcases.com, where they call it the D8000.

For your requirements, this get's my vote:
Case Link

This case has a 120mm intake in front and two 80mm places in the rear. Comes in other colors too (white,silver).

Try www.upgradecenter.com. I just ordered a case and power supply and 2 fans for the daughter and it cost $40 shipped. Doubt it's the quality of the above post, but it gives you a cheap alternative.

Look at the CaseTek Super ATX tower cases at newegg. 20" tall and deep, a side window, two back and two front fan mounts, top mounted USB and 1394. They are apparently very heavy and sturdy. No power supply is included, but it's only $55 shipped.
