What is the coolest ATX mid tower case that is not over than $. 60? Currently I’m building a gaming pc for my friend and he has a tight budget. The GPU is 8800GT and I know it produces a lot of heat so I need a good airflow case.

Considering a CoolerMaster C5 is a good choice with side transparent panel (for show off) and mesh front panel but it only comes with one 80mm front intake and one 120mm rear exhaust and I think it will not cool enough even I plan to add additional slot fan below the GPU.

Anyone pls help me choose. Thank’s.

If you're from seatle wa, then you may have a Fry's electronics. They should have at least one case on sale next week. Some are almost free after rebate on black friday. They recently had the antec 190 for $75 with no rebate. Well worth the extra $$. The cooler master is a good choice. It's not as good as the antec, but you can't expect too much for your budget. I've gotten 3 cases from fry's. One was a coolergiant with enermax ps for $15 after rebate. The other was an antec super lanboy with 2 120mm fans for $14 after rebate. The most recent was from fry's.com; an antec sonata II with 450w ps for $30 after rebate. And I've received all my rebates within 8-10 weeks.

I found my CM 690 for $55 on sale.

It's a great case if you can find one on sale (normally $70ish).

Guys, the problem is I'm from South East Asia, Newegg doesn't services my country and the prices from Newegg is far too cheap compare to the same product that I can buy in my country. For Antec 900 that I bought 3 months ago cost me $.150.

Personally, CoolerMaster 690 interests me very much but the true but sad thing is it's still unavailable in my local distributor store. Guess I'm stuck with a generic bad product case with my friend $60 budget :(

What about iCute? What do you guys think? Thanks
