Ok, so I have had this cheap Powmax case for a while, and I am getting sick of it. It is pretty tight for space inside and the design kinda sucks. I need a spacious case that won't fall apart and that is less than $100. I have not had many experiences with different cases so just recommend some...Thanks! I was thinking about getting a chieftec like this. I need it to have at least 3 80mm fan slots and at least 3 5.25 bays and 3 3.5 bays...
 
That's probably your best bet, but get the aluminum version from NewEgg for only a little bit more.
 
I hope you also plan to get rid of the cheap powmax psu if you haven't already. Those are some of the worst ever.

The one Coolermaster is the only one with an included PSU. Its not great but it's good. I'd recommend getting a good PSU from Enermax or PC Power & Cooling. SilenX makes some good ones that are very quiet as well.

What components are you using so we can know how much power your PC will need?
 
If you had not have added the 80mm fan statement I would have suggested the Antec Performance 1, 2 120mm slots, 4 harddrive rails, 4 5.25 bays.

The case is awesome.
 
How about this case for $37 shipped?? Shoot, you could put your entire system in there, then rent out the remainder of the case cheap.....maybe to some college student, as a studio apartment?? LOL :D
 
thanks guys, I really like some of these, ecspeciall the antecs jabronidan linked to. I think I will read some reviews and then decide. As for that one for $37 that Nivram posted, I think that is too big for me lol! :)
 
Just so you know, the antec is the only one of the cases I linked you to thats got a plastic front door and pannel. All those silverstones and coolermasters also come in silver as well.

I suggest getting the Chenming from Newegg, the Dragon. It is alumunim, has a window, and is only 1 dollar more then the Antec.
