Suggestions for good micro-atx case?

Anyone have some suggestions for a good quality micro atx case? I'm thinking around the $50 price range, no psu needed. THanks
 
Man you must be psycho... I was just coming in here to post the same question!

Looking for m-atx with P4 PS with a traditional/conservative appearance (going to be in offices). Depth of case 15" max.

Or for that matter an ATX case with a depth of no more than 15" would be even better.

Thanks guys
 
I have built several mATX systems in the last 6mo. or so and the best case I have used is the:

Fong Kai 611L ........ purchased from: Directron

Price includes a 300W Enhance ATX ..... (it fits) ... psu ...........

Total depth measures 16.5" (including front plastic bezel) .......... 14.75" (not including bezel).

My second choice would be the Inwin V500 series ....... (close to the Fong Kai, not quite as good cooling options)
There are smaller mATX case options, but adaquate cooling is more critical and drive options and psu choices are limited.....
 
I have the (FK603)bigger brother of the 611 & it is a great case.Is that a 80 or 92mm fan mount in the rear of the 611?

Someone needs to pick one of these up 😀

A little over $50 but come on how cool would that look with a sweet flat panel in an office 😎

no kidding.....outa my range though
 
I have that yeongyang case in grey and I think that is as small as it gets for microatx cases that can use full size pci cards. Overall a very nice case and the PS is pretty powerful too. Only thing that bothers me is that the CDrom sits right above the CPU. Fits a chrome orb nicely and the lower profile heatsinks.
 
Might want to investigate the 500 series Superpowers. I have a ks-502 on order from Axiontech for a new project, I'll post more info after it arrives. Having encountered a few of their boxes in the past, I wanted to see if their stout, no nonsense method carried thru into the matx line....
