      If you are willing to take some time and money from your wallet, try trading.
      Some things to note if you wish to start trading:
      1) Your going to lose money before you make money
      2) its expensive
      3) Your trading account could get hacked and the money may be transferred to anyone's bank account
      4) Never focus on a single crypto currency
      5) You can only predict with prices will go up or down, and your prediction is usually wrong
      You can only use trading websites that are available in your area. Good luck m8.
      P.S. Don't complain about stuff like this. The first thing I'm going to do is buy Nier: Automata and -stare- analyze 2B's booty... done.

      just make sure to consider audio. headset is always best for gaming, and for relaxing use cheap $10 speakers from amazon or whatever. also consider video ports: make your your motherboard and monitor both have the same type of ports or else get a adapter.

    • @blyatman7244
      @blyatman7244 4 года назад +3

      Most of them are, well, shit. Here's why
      1)Most of them have Closed-Off front panel which mean little to no airflow
      2)The stands are too short. leaving psu hungry for fresh air
      3)Build Quality. On the budget side is horrible. Can't say that to high-end stuff, though.
      4)Not much space for cable management
      TBH. Just go for NR400 or NR600 for budget oriented build, Lian Li O11, H500M and Phanteks P400A for high-end build

      I used to have a mid range cougar case, around 40$. It had 2 fans already mounted, cable management holes and spaces, toolless 2.5 and 3.5 bays, mesh front, though the bay mounting was not removable to be able to mount a radiator.

    • @muffinman4515
      @muffinman4515 4 года назад +2

      Agree. I’ve got a Cougar MX330G and it’s a pretty good case for $45. Good cable management room, glass side panel, enough room on the front for two-three fans and enough room on the top of the case for two more fans. Additionally there are dust filters on both as well as on the PSU intake. Power supply shroud with 3.5 inch bays. Pretty good case all in all.

    I got a Rosewill Nautilus for Christmas and used it for my Ryzen 3 build. It normally goes for around $50 but I've seen it go for as little as $25 when on sale. It comes with 3 fans, 1 in the rear and 2 in the front, with the front two having blue LED lights. It supports a full size ATX motherboard. It has a good amount of space, compatibility with up to 3 hard drives and a DVD drive, has a rear mounted PSU slot (no shroud), and there is space behind the case for cable management (though it is quite tight though). It has a clear side panel, and it has a top mount for a radiator. It is far from perfect but I would recommend it as a budget case.

    My $20 mid tower case has a full plexiglass window, 240mm fan mount on the upper side, 3x140mm fan mounts on the front, 1x 5.45" bay, no glossy stuff, 3x3.5" HDD mount at the bottom next to the PSU, cable management holes next to the motherboard, PCI mount locks, for additional security, no break-off covers, fan dust filters on the top as well as on the PSU, SSD mounts (although the 3.5" bay racks are designed to accommodate 2.5" drives as well). It even has a water pump/reservoir mount. But, it doesn't come with any fans.

      They didn't because it's MSRP is $49.99 and it is a fantastic case. I just recently installed my friend's old computer into it a week or two ago. It actually has fantastic cable management for a case when it is discounted in price. I got it for $10 after rebate during black friday sales.

    Yay, I have the cougar! Win for me. But mine is able to mount a dual 120mm radiator in the front as well as the top. I never had a problem with the breakaway pci brackets. Once they are gone, don't have to deal with them again anyway. Mine doesn't have the side vents though and has a plastic panel instead so maybe I have a slightly different model.

      In what way? What if you have limited space? What if you would like a pc that's compact enough to carry? What if (wink wink) you are water cooling, which limits the need for airflow inside the case?

    I just finished building a system for a friend using the Thermaltake Versa H15. It was $30 off Amazon. I must say I was pleasantly surprised with it given it's price. It had removable HDD bays, a removable 5.25 bay, some thought toward cable management, plenty of room for a full length video card, and overall pretty good aesthetically.
    Overall I'd recommend it to anyone building a budget gaming PC. Only caveat is that it is Micro ATX, but I think that's acceptable given Micro ATX tends to be a good pick for budget builds.

    A good budget case in my opinion is the Rosewill Magnetar. I got it for 25 dollars on sale and it has an acrylic window and 3 fans pre-installed. No sharp places, decent amount of room for cable management, even a PSU dust filter! Big downside would be the one USB 3 port at the front, but for the price it’s amazing.

  • @flemardo
