I am looking to upgrade from my old case and I am looking for a good quality black case (aircooled) for under £50 I am grateful for any and all advise.

thanks Ed :D
 
I've seen the Corsair 300R for £50 on offer a few times, that gets my vote for that price, provided you don't mind not having a window (there is a windowed version, but it would be too expensive).
 
i have been looking at this case for a while, would u recommend it?

How much adaptability does it have e.g. can u install extra fans, can u remove HDD trays etc...
 
the z9 comes with 4 fans, temp probe and a fan controller (for 2 fans iirc)
which is all you need really. no need to buy anything extra
hdd rack cant be removed (iirc, again ;p) but that's not a big issue tbh. esp not for the price.

bargain.

only negative point is the lack of usb3 inbuilt ports at the front

I did look at the Z9 myself but the lack of proper side window and also the rather restrictive PSU ventilation and lack of dust filter for the PSU put me off.
 
^This. I've also heard about the restrictive PSU vents on the Z9, so most people who buy it mount their PSU fan side up. Not really a massive problem mounting it that way, after all, TTL from OC3D always mounts his PSU that way as well :)
