Looking to buy a new case from the egg for cheap.
I am talking like $60 shipped.

I will only have 1 dvd drive,1 hard drive,1 card reader.
Will need to fit a atx mobo,have a couple locations for case fans and house a big video card like a gtx260.

I cannot tell from the new egg pics which case will fit the gtx 260 and be cheap so please help me out guys
 
Antec 300. $55 shipped. Best deal they've got at the moment, for what you want. It's that or some no-name Rosewill deal.
 
I have one for sale. It is a cooler master centurion 5 case with two holes drilled for 80mm fans on the side through the plastic and one 80mm hole drilled through the top for better airflow. The case is in great condition. Ill let it go for $40 or best offer.
 
The antec 300 looks small from the pics online.I am off to see if I can find a youtube video of a antec 300 with a gtx260/280
 
I'd go with the antec 300. It is probably the best looking cheap case I've seen. I saw it at fry's and I liked it a lot. A 260 will fit in the antec 300.
 
I ordered and sent payment toda for the antec 300 case.

I will only be using 1 hard drive so I am gonna hack that hard drive cage so I can get a huge video card in there without any problems.I cannot wait for my parts to show up
 
I am sure you will like the Antec 300. Nothing fancy but much about everything is done right.
 
did you consider my Cooler Master Centurion 5 case? It is in good shape and would be a great "cheap" case to start a build with.
 
You never sent me pics so I tihnk this is a situation where the ole saying is true

If ya snooze ya lose.
I couldn't pass the case up for $55shipped that was a steal
 
I am trying ot find pics of people rigs with the antec 300 so I can see what they have done with the drive cage to fit a huge video card
 
I'm fairly sure that the 300 is deep enough that there are no issues fitting in large video cards even with the way the bays are set up. You should be good to go without any mods.
