I need a budget gaming pc case

[Vermillion_1]

Please link me a very nice looking gaming pc case that is as cheap as possible. It must support an optical drive.

You need to supply more information:
GPU size in length
Motherboard size(ATX, uATX, etc.)
Style (LED, Tempered glass, etc.)

I would recommend a microATX case because people who buy ATX cases usually need the ram slots and IMO its just paying more money for more features you don't need to use. the Rosewill FMB-X1 is a plastic panel micro/mini I/A TX computer and personally i'm going to make my build a mini itx.

DTX is a open standard thats backward compatible to ATX. Its just 8 X 9.6 instead of 9.6 X 9.6 so it can fit in smaller cases. The Rosewill also works if want a low price option.

Thanks! I hope I am not being a drag but the s340 doesn't have an optical drive... and sorry I didn't mention this earlier but, can you find me a case with a side window?

 

[elbert]

Yes that case has no 5.25 ext. Here is a great case with 3 X 5.25 for an optical drive.

R1 is a favourite on a tight budget , both the zalman s come with a huge amount of preinstalled cooling.

OMG, I love those cases, but sadly I am limited to amazon cards . I am just a teenager.
