Reccomendation for Affordable Case

My PSU died and I'm kinda fed up with my current case so I'm thinking about investing in a new one.

I am looking to spend about 50-75 dollars.

I will be running a XP 2100 on an Epox 8RDA+ motherboard. I have a cheapo radeon 7000 video card, and 512 pc2700 ram. not much else (no hot video cards or anything). I have a thermaltake volcano 9 (I think? the heat adjusted one) heatsink.

Anyway, I want a black case preferable. If not black, dark. I wont be OCing, I just need one that will run cool enough. I also don't want it to be very loud. Preinstalled case fans are a big plus.

I've looked at some of the Antecs and they are appealing.

Thanks for any help.

I concur on this one. With a little modding, it can be made very quiet and cool.
 
I'd also vote for the 6A19 (or it's Antec brother, the SLK3700. I happen to like the door and the color is a dark metallic silver, not bronze, regardless of what Antec says).
