Dirt cheap case.

I'm considering upgrading my PC but it'll be on a VERY tight budget.

I have a dated case and it's small so I'll need to get a new one.

However I only have £20-£30 to spend and no more.

Would the above be the best for the money?

Any suggestions?

I'd say I'm about 99% sure that's the best case you will find for about £30.

Pretty sure the Merc Alpha is the best you'll find for £30, you'd have to spend around £40 to get anything better.

Cheers guys. Seems like that one is the best bet then.

Would I fit a 5850 in the case without issue?

Cheers

It might just squeeze in but it would probably be close... The Alpha doesn't look like a specifically big case for a mid sized ATX case, but your best bet is to search google for builds in this case using similar sized cards.

This would be my choice.

I have an alpha, actually pretty good case TBH. I'm just starting out in the market for something a bit bigger though

Cheers guys but I just picked up a Coolermaster Elite 335U for free from the MM! Can't complain at that and from what I've read it fits long GPU's.

Cheers
