The DIYPC Silence-BK-Window mid tower PC case may be a little heavy but that's because this case is made for quiet operation with sound absorbing material on the front, side, and top. It has some really nice features that drew me to this case over others. The $30 prices at the time with a mail in rebate didn't hurt either.

PROS:
- Affordable at only ~$30 with rebate
- Subtle minimalist design with a solid brushed aluminum door that hides the 5.25 inch drives behind it.
- Top I/O that includes 2 USB 3.0, 2 USB 2.0, a SD / micro SD card reader and 2 audio jacks.
- Large side window to show off all your hardware
- 3 included 120mm fans
- Built fan controller with support for up to 5 fans and 3 speed settings with 2 zones of control
- Quality feel the side panels didn't flex much at all even with the window in place.
- Quiet running optimized design
- Sound absorbing material on side panel, door, and top removable panels
- Support for large water radiators on the front and top
- Air filters for the front fans and power supply that can be easily removed for cleaning
- Plenty of cable management options between access holes and anchors all over the motherboard plate.
- About an inch of room behind the motherboard for cable management
- Dust covers for top I/O ports
- Very open interior layout. Not large 5.25 inch drive bay structure in the way.
CONS:
- Some manufacturing left overs, sharp drill hole shards
- SD card reader is only USB 2.0
- A little heavy at 18 pounds
- I personally didn't like the shroud over around the power supply but they did incorporate cable management holes in the right places
