Looking for a new case

Hardware Hub Cases / Chassis
1

at the moment i am using this http://www.coolermaster.com/case/mid-tower/centurion-5-ii/

 

Its ok but just finding it a bit cramped for space especially when it comes to cable managerment around the back 

 

if anyones got any suggestions i would be greatfull not to expensive and ideally with 2 usb front connectors i did see the corsair 760t which looked great but just to expensive for me 

(inside at the moment of my current case have a corsair h60i cooler/270x graphics card/and 5 sata drives (1 a ssd)

Here are some suggestions. 

ATX:

NZXT 210 Elite

Corsair 200R

NZXT Source 530

mATX:

Cooler Master N200

Fractal Design Arc Midi

 

All are cheaper than the 760t. Provide cable management, and reasonable airflow for your current specs.

Well, What do you look for in a case?

Do you value clean aesthetics like the Fractal design Define or Arc series, NZXT H440, Corsair Obsidian series,  etc..

Or do you like abstract looking cases like the corsair carbide series, NZXT Phantom, Cm Storm, CM HAF,  etc...

Do you want absolute silence but with a sacrifice of airflow?: Fractal Design Define, NZXT H440, Corsair 550d etc..

Do want to overclock like crazy and need a lot of airflow to keep everything cool? : Corsair Air 540, Cooler Master Haf series, CM Storm series, Corsair Graphite series.  etc..

Do you want a good middleground between silence and airflow? : NZXT Phantoms, Corsair C70, Fractal Design Arc series etc...

Do you want a watercooling loop?  Corsair 450D, Corsair 750D, NZXT Switch 810, Fractal DesignArc XL.  Cooler Master HAF X.  etc..

Which one of these fits your needs best?

thanks for the suggestions will take a look

Not fussed about looks would like decent airflow though.Quietness would be a bonus but not essential if it came with mesh to stop dust would be great to never bothered with overclocking 

using water cooling at the moment but its the enclosed type  

most important thing for me is space in my current case the cables are cramped

Then you should take a look at the Fractal Design Arc Midi XL.  It has everything you mentioned.  Top notch case.

im also looking for a new case that can take 4+ hard drive's and has to be at least micro atx and cheap. not trying to spend over 100 for the case.

Fractal design arc midi r2... Fan filters everywhere, 8 hdd/ssd slots, full inch behind the motherboard tray, 3x140mm silent fans (15dbA) come installed, supports 2x240mm rads in the top and at the front, front and top filters are foam, that helps with the noise a little... And I think it's less than 100$.

I like the NZXT switch 810, but it is $169. It has PLENTY of room. darn budgets.

I built mine in the Coolermaster Storm Scout 2 Advanced.  Lots of space, it's clean, and easy to build in.  Check out the photos and build description here:
