If you are looking for a super cheap office usage case then this will suffice.

It's a case priced at $15. Like with anything in life, you get what you pay for.

For around $20 you can get this:

The Raidmax Atlas has much better airflow than the Senty case. So between your choices its the better one. As far as 'getting the job done' either will get the job done, as long as all that means is 'will it hold my stuff inside'. The Antec one shown is a very well built case for its price, and easy to use for beginner builders with good cable management and airflow etc. The Rosewill Challenger listed was probably the best for its value as far as adaptability goes, with very decent airflow, decent cable management, led fans etc. It doesn't look like a 1980's computer 'box' either, which is a bonus

The Raidmax is where I would start in looking for a budget case.

Atx case is backwards compatible with a micro-atx motherboard, so yes, it will work just fine. The case only comes with 1 exhaust fan, so I would stretch your budget and buy another 120mm (12cm) fan and install it as intake in the front. a lot of ppl like the blue LED with this, match the blue in the rest of the case. also give thought to maybe putting a clear 120mm fan (blue led) in the window. will help cool the whole motherboard.

is installing fans difficult?

 

[Deleted member 217926]

No, not at all. Just 4 screws and a fan connector.

 

[Karadjgne]

not really, 4 screws and a plug to the motherboard usually sys_fan1 or sys_fan2. hardest part is usually figuring how to get the front of the case off inorder to screw the 4 screws in. sometimes you must remove the hard drive cages from the bottom, in order to get to put it in. that's not a bad thing however, makes for better airflow, means cooler temps in the case, which means your stuff lasts longer.
