I like small cute cases in theory but they are not designed that well. I have a cooler master 130 elite cube case with the black mesh front grill. After a while it gets covered with dust and there is a mesh filter behind the grill. To clean the grill after about one year, I had to pry apart the grill and remove the mesh filter and clean it. Not an easy thing to do. I might have been better off with a vacuum cleaner or forced air running through the filter in reverse like from an air hose. White dust on the black grill does not look that nice. Maybe a silver colored grill would look nicer in the long run.
