What's the cheapest decent case I can get my hands on?

Drake5 · 10 Aug 2013 at 16:27

As title really.

I currently have a CM Storm case but it's old, beaten up and the front audio ports don't work.

If possible I really don't want to have to spend more than £30. Can anyone make any suggestions please? I'm thinking the Bitfenix Alpha is the best for the budget?

Or there's this one for an extra £3

Many thanks

They are both good options, id personally pick the beta.

Another option is the asgard pro.

A great case for the money.

Shame you can't stretch to £50, so you could get a 200r or bitfenix shinobi.

Hi and thanks for the reply.

Why would you chose the BETA over the Alpha? Just wondering.

im guessing you want full atx and not matx?

Drake5 · 10 Aug 2013 at 20:03

Full ATX, yeah.

Im not sure.

I think I've overheard people say the beta is a better case and to me, it looks better (if there are different in anyway).

Alpha has fan holes on the top, beta doesn't.

Drake5 · 10 Aug 2013 at 22:43

It seems that the only difference is the Merc Alpha has the option of 2 fans at the top.

Ok, as the Merc Alpha has more reviews for the sake of £3 I'm going to go for it and I guess extra fans are always useful.
