Best Case under $50

[ShayyDog]

Hey guys
I'm building my first PC build and have all the components ready...I just need a case. I would like to have a case with a side panel window, and I would also like to see it have at least one fan included. I've looked at a bunch but it's hard to judge all the reviews and think of how many people love it and don't review. If any of you guys have a solid case recommendation for under $50 it would be appreciated.
Thanks

Oh by the way it needs to be an ATX case...would like it to be Mid-Tower

Thanks! I'm stuck between the Deepcool Tesseract and the NZXT Source 220. Which one would you recommend?

LOL, I like the Azza.

I have a tesseract for my main PC and i've build a few PCs using tesseracts for other people. The case is phenomenal for the price. Its up to you if you like the looks, all i can say is it has great build quality and cooling for the price.

Oh ok haha. Any particular reason it seems better than the others? I'm new at building computers so I don't really understand a lot of specs.

The only bad thing I've read about them is the flimsy metal frame. Is that a problem or is it just picky people? And which variation of the case do you own.

 

[Archaic59]

Features are similar on all 4 of them. Just depends on which one you like looking at the most.

 

[emdea22]

Mainly i think its picky people. The metal frame has a good finish to it. Only possible flimsy part might be the top of the case but that gets a lot of stability when adding a couple of fans up there.

i own the basic version -> BF one but i've also built using the SW ones and they're the same build quality with only the side panel and fans changed.

Whatever case you get, just don't expect too much from a 50 dollar case.
