I'm looking around newegg and stuff for computer cases but they all look so, well, tacky to me. Anyone know of any nice looking ones? Preferably under $80?

I'm looking for something reminiscent of HP cases but jet black...I'm not into those flashy blue lights and stuff.

Or Frys? Well, the last time I was there, the selection was limited and the ones that actually looked good was over my budget. And I live in the boonies..so it's a long drive.

try this website
http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/Ca...lc.asp?CatId=32

i had bought a computer from them and it worked a $hit and ended up in the dumpster

but i think their cases are fine. they sell alot of cheapest $hit though. i think they are not too bad if you know what to buy.

and you would love this

If you're looking for something sturdy like aluminum cases. I got one word for you "Cooler Master". Check their cases out.

Well, I really like this one (see link below). A nice and sheik design, nothing too over-the-top, but it doesn't have the see through side.
I think I'll get it if I don't find another one I like...wonder if the side panel from my old tower can fit with it.
