Hi,

I've got this build sorted: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/WwymQD (any feedback on build appreciated, trying to save on price if possible)

But I have no idea what case to go for. Ideally, a budget one, that comes with 3/4 pre installed fans if possible. Any advice is appreciated. The budget is ideally £90.
Thanks

That one looks like it could be the one. How do you think it compares to, say, this one?:https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/3RJmP6/phanteks-eclipse-p400a-atx-mid-tower-case-ph-ec400atg_bk
Phanteks looks like the meshed front panel will help with airflow more than the 275r. I have my 275r with a front mounted 360MM AIO that blows air out the front, the front panel has space along the perimeter for air to flow through in and out, with one rear intake fan and two top exhaust fans. It's not the most perfect set up but it keeps my temps in line.
Other than that, they have similar dust filters and similar construction/disassembly!

Just comes down to looks after that, I'm a fiend for corsair stuff though so that's what I'd go...

What is your budget for pc case?

I'd look into Fractal Design Meshify series - Meshify S2 for example.

Budget is £90 although I'd ideally like to spend less, so I think I'll have to pass on that one, although it is a really nice looking case!

This one is a nice budget one if you like glass side panels. It only comes with 2 fans though.

£90 limits your options.
Cooler Master MasterBox MB 511 (TG/RGB/ARGB)- then perhaps?
