[SOLVED] Budget ATX Case

[iErnest]

I want to upgrade my old case to a new one. I would like a case with many fans out of the box and cost around ~50€. Any suggestions would help me.

It simply doesn't exist, unfortunately. Those fans aren't included for free...
What kind of hardware are you trying to cool?

 

[iErnest]

I will swap my optiplex 990, so that's a i7 2600 and a gtx 970

I'd get this Fractal, comes with two intake fans and room for more plus its close to your budget. Since your moving your parts from a prebuilt you may want to double check the compatibility (motherboard/standoff locations).

I see that intel dq 67 are compatible with this case socket 1155 same as my motherboard but mine is q67. I don't know if it fits in that case

It more then likely will work as it supports ITX/MATX/ATX boards. If for some reason it doesn't then it's really going to limit the cases you can get, buy via a retailer that will allow for a refund just in case.

Hello everyone!

I am looking for a good budget ATX case. I bought a h310m with an i3 9100f motherboard and I got a gtx 970 (budget build).
So I need a good and cheap case, no matter how many fans and no rgb needed.
I only need good airflow for my pc.
I am living in Germany and I would prefer cases from ebay.
I am thankfull for all suggestions.
Thanks

I like previous case recommended - fractal design focus g. 2 preinstaled fans in front. Add one more in rear and you have good airflow case. Temps with my cpu and gpu holds ~60 °c(also i buy better cpu cooler and better gpu with better cooling).

Or for a decent M-ATX case,

also comes with two fans.

Sure the motherboard has the right bios to support that cpu?

Hi, I bought it from a a dude and he already updated the bios to support 9gen cpus

Hi, thanks for your answer.
My mobo has only one system fan and how can I connect 3 fans to my mobo?

I agree with the Diypc cases they are cheap and usable

I've used the 2-1 version but this should work or just grab a fan hub which is probably better if you want to add more fans later on.

This hub is on sale, 10 ports and ensures better power for the fans due to the SATA connection.

Hello, I saw on Amazon that they are a lot of negative reviews about this case.
Due it cheap material and hard to screw the motherboard in the case, is this true?

Cooler master cases usually have decent quality as the one i linked above.

van also look at this one,
https://pcpartpicker.com/product/CPn8TW/gamemax-whisper-microatx-mini-tower-case-gmx-whisper
only seen reviews about the brand,but seems pretty decent for the price.

Both options come with two fans which for the budget is about all you can expect.
