Any good suggestions for case that can fit my specs listed.

Broke front audio port and front USB ports 2/4 have issues detecting even after new mobo.

No need for rgb, tg but be nice to have.
Prefer to have clean, minimal look, airflow.

Can top up abit more if the jump is worth it.

cm nr400/600

nr400 is matx and smaller only, no full size atx. but nr600 is still a solid choice.

anyway yeah i would recommend against tecware, the quality is pretty bad. fractal design focus is a really good case, but have to keep in mind that the side panel is acrylic.

was considering Focus G and the NR600 too. but whats the difference for the price points? i see G dont use tempered glass and a smaller form factor.
smaller size no issue as i dont use water-cooling etc but i assume it will affect air flow since less space to flow?

how about phanteks P300

Tecware is cheap plastic gao gao.
I buy once I don't want to buy liao.

which model was that ?

Initially was worried about the quality of my first sub 100$ case, the gamble pays off and saved $120 for a Samsung 860 evo.

So far so good, alpha case only the front grill is plastic which I took out several times, it's thick and solid like other brands... doesn't have the 50cents cheap plastic flimsy feel...

i think so long as the front panel intake is not a solid piece, like mesh, airflow should be decent. the phanteks case is noted to be pretty good in many areas including airflow though.

iirc the nr600 is quite a bit more expensive than the focus g, but comes with real tempered glass and psu shroud. havent looked at pricing for the phanteks case though.
