Looking for a roomy case that is good value for money under £40.

I've just tried installing another hard drive only to find access is blocked by the CPU cooler. Rather than messing about taking the motherboard out, I've decided to get another case instead ready for a bit of an upgrade next week.

It needs to fit a micro ATX motherboard but I want something bigger than a micro ATX case. Fed up with having to fumble around in my current one. It also needs to fit a graphics card around the size of a 7850.

Not fussed about windows or lights etc.

Cheers.
 
Cheers guys.

I was all set to order the Zalman Z9 Plus until I noticed it didn't have any USB3 connections. I always thought the 'plus' version did.

It's not a deal breaker but I'll carry on looking until I order something on Monday.

The Xigmatek look OK but I so far prefer the Z9 with the front and bottom dust filters.

Any other recommendations welcomed.
 
I ended up getting a Zalman Z9 Plus from here. Thankfully I ordered yesterday before it went up £10!

Finally transferred things over from my other case. I thought I had a problem when the power wouldn't turn on until I realised I had to connect something just behind the front panel. Panic over. :o

One problem is that my motherboard only seems to have one fan connector and this case comes with 4 fans supplied. What cable can I get to connect all my fans to? They appear to be 3 pin fans.

Sorted the front and rear fans out now. Just need to know which cable I'm best getting to power the side and top fans now.
