Cheap Decent Cases

[Ollii]

Hey, watched Toms video on the < £600 build and thought it might be a bit of fun designing another similar one designed around arias bundle. Got all of it sorted out but wasn't sure on what case. Narrowed it down to these:

NZXT Vulcan Micro-ATX (The one that Tom uses) : http://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Comp...ATX+Gaming+Tower+Case+-+Black?productId=40614

but also came across this NZXT which is pretty nice and almost identical in price though wasn't sure if it was any good.

NZXT Lexa-S Midi Tower : http://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Comp...idi+Tower+Gaming+Case+-+Black?productId=40138

What are your thoughts?

I wouldn't go NZXT mate except the NZXT Phantom, look at Xigmatek

 

[bertdasquirt]

I currently have a xigmatek utgard...aesthetically pleasing.... comes pre-fitted with more than enough fans for a cheap build and has plenty of space for cable routing and good air flow.... at a small sum of £65-70.. i'd say it was well worth it!

coolermaster range

Its a Mid-Tower with the option to remove a HDD rack for some of the longest GPU's.

Not to mention WAY better cooling.

($100 here in the US for the Advanced version with black interior)

Lancoo l(lian-li subsidiary) PC-k60 is really solid. the 62 has a painted inside, different window and led fans. its $80 CAD( ~£50), $5 more than the vulcan. Iv worked with this case and it is very good for the price. Id recommend this over the CM690 II.

The CM690 Advanced looks like a great case for the money, as does the Utgard previously suggested.

You won't go wrong with either.

Well I will go ahead and stick my neck out and recommend the Bitfenix Survivor core as a very good cheap case.

It does have its niggles, and I have had my problems with it but hardly any of that were a fault of the case. Once built and together it looks stunning, cools very well and the look definitely belies the price tag.

I will try and throw some words onto the screen about it soon and possibly a video but right now I'm as sick as a dog.. Manflu FTL, right at bloody Christmas too

if you can get your hands on it anymore, the lian li pc-7 is a brilliant case

or the lian li pc-75 bk

 

[Socks]

I second the lian li

 

[ionicle]

its just such a nice case to work with, and i dont think ill ever change it, unless ATx becomes outdated

cm690 ii advanced

 

[Ov3erclock3R]

If you looking for a cheap case i think Xigmatek Asgard would be a good choice for £27.95 looks good spacious for the price plus a bit of cable management i was going to get that case but i spent a bit more on coolermaster cm 690 II advanced circa £79.

Lancool K62R1, the case that I have, decent cooling, comes with the quality of a Lian Li case, didn't even need to get out my screwdriver cause it's completely tooless. Most importantly the red interior is
