When I built my PC a year ago, I bought a really cheap case. It did not have USB 3.0 or audio on the front panel, and I regret it now. I already have new case fans for the thing, and it runs quietly, but I really do want a new case.

The case I want:

  • Black and/or red, to match the rest of the build
  • Has a case window on the side
  • Has support for 2 or more 5 and 1/2 inch drives
  • Has front facing USB 3.0 and Audio
  • Costs less than $60
  • Supports full ATX motherboard and Power Supply
  • Is large enough 12.5 inch graphics card
  • Has cable management at least somewhat in mind
  • Is wide enough to support the Hyper 212 Evo CPU cooler
  • If a cover goes over the front of the case, the hinge must be on the right side
  • I do not need decent fans, as I have 4 red and very quiet corsair fans

  • Optional If possible, I would love support for USB type C, although my motherboard only has 3.0 headers, so an adapter would be needed

It is hard to find case which meets all your requirements in this budget but I have two recommendations under $70:

  • Corsair Carbide Series SPEC-03 - $70 on newegg.com. It is black with red lighted fan in front panel and meets all your requirements without USB type C support. This case has quite good cable managment and good airflow.
  • Thermaltake Commander G41 - $65 + shipping on newegg.com. It also meets all your requirements without USB type C support. It has nice HDD and 5.25 mounting system and good amount of space for cable managment.

Consider using the Enermax Ostrog. Although it does not meet the USB Type-C requirement (Which I honestly doubt that any case under $60 would have at this point), it does fufil your other requirements. I have personally used this case in the past, and I can say that it does indeed work well. On a side note, the side panel is essentially one huge window; which means weekly cleaning (At least I did). Great case that can be had at Frys for $44
