Agree HAF912 is a great budget mid tower. I was able to pick one up at my local CompUSA for less than $40.
I like it because it has plenty of room for almost any setup and is fairly modular.

I saw a HardwareCanucks video on youtube on the HAF 912 and was really impressed.|

Yeah it is, had it for a few months, and for the price, it is extremely good. Okay cable management, and lets you put in 2x 200mm fans.
Great case, and going from a micro case to this, I saw temps drop like crazy!
For the price, it is one of the top cases!
