Recommendation for a box up to 150e (are there any without LEDs or windows? :D)

[Istarion]

Hello!
It's been a long time since I last visited this page and I see that it has changed quite a bit. Congratulations on the design and keep up the good work!!

I am looking for a case that can fit a 2080 of about 30cm, that has good airflow, and that the noise is decent (I prefer with filters because the room has a lot of dust).
Right now I have a Xeon 1231v3 with a Hyper 212 and an R290, but with my current monitor (OMEN X35) and because it's worn out, the computer freezes after a few hours of gaming. I would change my graphics card directly for a 2080 and change everything else in April (Zen2), but it doesn't fit

Details that don't add anything to me are the LEDs and the windows. I'm going to end up breaking the window and the LEDs usually bother me, but I can always turn them off and if only the ones with a window are "better" then I'll go with that.

I've been looking at reviews, videos (gamers nexus, which confuses me more than it clarifies xD) and a little bit of everything, but honestly I'm still at the same point. I would like you to give me your feedback (* my favorites, bad points in parentheses):

• BeQuiet Dark Base 900 (expensive, front door comes loose and vibrates, bad paint, problematic fan control, screw problems)
• BeQuiet Dark Base 700 (expensive, 360 liquid cooling doesn't fit, space problems, low quality screws)
• *BeQuiet Silent Base 601 (bad screws)
• Corsair Crystal 570x (360mm liquid cooling only front, 280mm top, side glass broke without applying pressure)
• Corsair Carbide 270R / 300R (no top filter / noisy)
• *Cooler Master MasterCase 5 (vibration noise, maybe fixable with fan rubber)
• Cooler Master h500p mesh (low quality exterior, top acrylic detaches)
• *SilverStone RL06 Pro (cheap, decent reviews)

As you can see I have a mental mess that I can't sort out... there are options from 60e to 190e...
P.D.: Sorry for the long post!

Well, my post didn't last long, following more reviews, I found this case that caught my attention quite a bit, the Cooler Master H500.

Here's a review from gamers nexus:
https://www.gamersnexus.net/hwreviews/3334-cooler-master-h500-case-review-recommended

In it they comment that it has good airflow, huge fans (200mm), filters on the fans, a pretty affordable price (although in Europe obviously they are more expensive) and even cheaper than their sisters, which sometimes have worse cooling.
The shroud of the power supply only reaches the middle of the case, offering better cooling characteristics than having it complete. It also has plenty of space.

Regarding the drawbacks, I have found very little, the logo is ugly and they need to update it xD the style is peculiar, personally I like it, and I think I would say that the worst thing is the quality of the plastic, which is not very good. Another detail is that it has little space for optical drives, which fits my idea of having only SSDs, I think it's time to abandon mechanical devices from the inside of a PC and move the drives to a network NAS and fly
Finally, it has rgb leds and side glass, but everything else that I have been able to read I have liked a lot, I have not found big negative criticisms.

Once I have it and assemble it, I will write my impressions about it

Fractal Design Define. Both the R5 and R6 are top notch.
The CM 690III that I have is also very sober and robust, but if I had seen the Define before, I wouldn't have hesitated.

The H500 has the same drawback as the one I have: the mesh is not a dust filter, and it will force you to clean it twice a year at a minimum.

Well, it looks good to be honest! :detective: The only problem is if I get the courage and add a 360x360 radiator but I guess it's not something I'm going to do for sure.

I totally forgot about the filter, what a shame... I saw mesh and I just assumed it was included :rolling_eyes:

Thanks for the recommendation!
Next time I'll do it with more time, the anxiety got to me lol!
