Hi guys,

Going to be building a new Pc after 10years.

Moving away from Midi size as my gf thinks my midi is too big and ungly (lancool k58). I'm going to move to a Micro case to fit an mATX and potentially a 5700XT gfx card.

I really like the Nzxt H400i in white but it's sold out everywhere! Unfortunately the H210i can only fit ITX board

Any recommendations on a stylish case with decent airflow? Will probably have to fit a 240mm rad too.

Budget £150 max but prefer something cheaper ~£80-£120

Thanks in advance.
 
The Fractal Design cases are brilliant, they have plenty of space to work in and are built well... Also the airflow from the front is always decent as most have mesh like panel
 
I am drooling at Silverstone LD01.

Also Rajintek Thetis Window, can fit ATX motherboard in a case smaller than most mATX. I discarded it because 280mm rad won't fit, but it can take 240mm

Love the reversed motherboard layout, and both cases look good and seem well designed.
 
I’ve been using a Silverstone FT03 for years now. The airflow isn’t great but it’s still my favourite mATX case with the way the motherboard is orientated. Looks awesome with a window added to the side panel.

I managed to snag the one above in an auction for £30 :) Bargain of the century! Bought the black one a few years later for £50.

Worth keeping an eye out if you fancy building in one. £130 seems like a lot but it really is a neat solution sitting on a desk alongside a monitor.

The FT03 mini (ITX) looks great too.
