Looking for a cheap and simplistic mid tower case?

Thread Starter 
I would have totally went with the LIAN LI PC-K9WX a month ago when it was on sale for like $60.. but I was too slow doh.gif anyway, I need a non-flashy standard mid tower case, 1 DVD drive, 2 HDDs, and support for a 10.5" video card. Preferably with black interior, but it's not very necessary.

Anyone have any thoughts? I was looking at the NZXT Source 210, but the reviews about the weak paint finish and other issues kinda ticked me off cryingsmiley.gif

edit: not really interested in paying more than $60 - also not interested in the Antec 300 (I already have one and I'm looking for something different)

all the Fractal Design cases are designed pretty well and are very no-nonsense. I would recommend looking at those biggrin.gif

EDIT: I have no idea what size you prefer but the Arc Midi has gotten pretty good reviews and the new R4 looks beautiful wink.gif
