Micro ATX Case Advice Needed

Hardware Hub Cases / Chassis
1

Hello,

I have currently have a half size case (CoolerMaster Elite 335u) and want an upgrade. My motherboard is Micro ATX and have a normal atx power supply but want a smaller case. Can someone recommend a good micro atx case which has good cable management, smaller and around £50-£75.

Thanks

EDIT: It needs to hold a full size graphics card. Forgot about that.

Personally, I have not seen this case physically however many people recommend this case to people in a similar situation as yours:

Silverstone SG09:

Highlights:
Expansion Card Support - Compatible up to 13.3” long, width restriction-5.70"
Limitations of CPU cooler Size - 165mm
Limitations of PSU Length - 180mm

Price is around £75 ish.

EDIT: Example of capable cable management:

If you like minimalistic design and superb internal layout you may want to check out THE Arc Mini ( or R2 whichever you prefer) I personally have the original and it's awesome! 

I don't know if it's small enough for you but it's definitely smaller than what you have.

Nice Cable management and comes with 3 FANS!

Silverstone has the best thermal performance.Corsair and Fractal have better cable management.The front panel of obsidian cases look ugly as sin when you install 5.25 devices.

I second this suggestion! This case gives a lot of space for being a mATX case and if you don't have a disc drive, it has a very uniform look to it! There is a video of this case on this website. You can check it out if you want a closer look at it. Again, I recommend this case!

EDIT: I forgot to mention another case! You should look at the Bitfenix Colossus Micro MATX case if you want something with a little more flash to it. And again with this case, there is a review of it on the website. Take a look at the video if you are interested!

My first and last pick --> Fractal Design Define Mini

Don't even... Define mini needs update more than anything. Arc mini r2, obsidian 350D or a dirt cheap solution - fractal core 1000...

Just going off what I currently use. I'm not sure where the case needs the update unless they have changed some of the manufacturing methods in the last 10 months.

No fan controller, Non removable bottom HDD cage, or more importantly non rotatable, no SSD brackets at the back of the mobo tray, no window, low quality rubber grommets... As far as i can remember the only advantage is having 5,25 to 3,5" adapter in the lower optical bay, but this is useless if you can't remove the bottom HDD cage for better airflow... Arc mini R2 is a bit cheaper and much better in almost any way...
