Free Shipping,$20:Rosewill FBM-X1 Black Steel / Plastic ATX Mini Tower Case with Side Panel Window

I've built at least 8 computers using this case. It routinely goes on sale for $20, and is often $26.99 on newegg.

The case is fairly tight and a bit of a pain to put components into, and if your power supply is any larger/longer than the most common size, you won't be able to install a optical drive.

It's a good choice for value, as you get two fans (One has lights), and a side window if you want a cheap "gaming" case. Bear in mind that you'll have limited airflow and limited expansion.

This only supports M-ATX or ITX, so not sure why they put it as a ATX computer case.
 
Slightly related note, was considering whether or not to post this here since it was late, but there's about 2 days left on the Rosewill Line M sale, at both Newegg and Amazon:

It's not really a huge sale (it comes to this price at some frequency). I was looking for a very small, minimalist, and cheap MicroATX case so that I could freely move it around and take it to friends' houses with my "new" 1080 and old 4770k. This one fit all the bills for me. Just got it in and it's just a good, tiny, no-frills MicroATX case. Plenty of cooling options for a case that's so small. No useless side window, no weird logos, just a case. Plenty of GPU room. Crap for wire management but it's small to compensate. Just wish I could take the drive bays out entirely.

Although I still think it's silly that I'm paying more in order to get a smaller case with less things in it, but nothing else at this price range or lower was this minimalist while being solid..ish. It does flex some. >_>
