Cases are personal, and that one looks ok in terms of specs. The top exhaust will help, and it is inexpensive. Go ahead and max out the fans though.

junk imo

"?Will it keep my rig cool", well it maybe kewl but not cool.

Look for a case with atleast two 80mm front intake fans or even better a single 120mm front intake fan. That's the ticket for good air flow front to rear.

The boring Antec SLK 3000 was selling via Froogle for $50. Take a look at it's fan lay-out, that's what you want/need.
I'm not saying buy it, just look.

ok what is the best case that will keep good airflow and best overall value without going over 75$ shipped? I like the design of that case as it looks awesome. But honestly the case look is for myself and not very many people will see my pc besides me heh.

Shipping is about $15.

So what you want is a black case with some bling with decent cooling potential for $60.

That can be done. Might not have a window but one could be modded in at a later date if you can do it.

I got to go eat dinner but "I will be back" (Cali Governator).

Use the Newegg search engine for a $50 to $70 case. Then Froogle what you find that suits your fancy. The case search engine will permit you to say, no PSU, 120mm fan/s,
That type of thing.

No window but a very nice Kingwin steel/Al case, it comes with 2-120mm fans, a fan controller(not sure what it is. Probably just a switch to lower fan speed) and a red cathode. Kingwin is a respected case builder. This case comes with both fans=none to buy later.

Look at the wide selection here. Just be sure to look for front and rear 120mm fans. You will be glad you stayed away from having to deal with 80mm intakes.

I tried Newegg but their site was down. DealSonic has a wide selection of bargain cases.


When you choose a couple, plz come back and talk to us.

ya wht i want is a case with a clear window possibly and good cooling and looks nice. It should be black as well. Also a added bonus if it was aluminium rather than steel and it has a temp reader. Those last 2 dont have to be included.

This would be about $80 shipped but it is a very nice case with front and rear 120 fans. It's like the first one I linked but with a window.

Two other outfits that carry bargain cases are www.svc.com, www.directron.com and maybe www.jab-tech.com

I can't shop for you but do encourage you to get 2-120 fans and avoid using a PSU that comes with a bargain case. These PSUs cause too many problems and I'm not making that up. I see posts everyday about cheap PSUs causing systems to lock-up and hardware to die.
