I have one for like $40 from mwave.com, it's the house brand... the front is a little flimsy but it has pretty, jukeboxesque lights, side window, side fan + LEDs, etc...
Any particular size/weight? Would you like it in a specific color? What size mobo are you planning to put in it? Do you need a power supply? How many watts?

50...with leds... well my sonata piano black has 2 leds in the front. and it's black. and has a 120mm fan <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> (plus quiet!)
Im real nub so dont take my word for it. I just saw one that looked cool, didnt really read any of the specifications. Have at it. Go to newegg.com or w/e.
Sonata FTW. The loudest part of mine is my bloody Radeon. I still have to listen to hear it, but its louder than the CPU Fan, PSU Fan and dual 120mm case fans put together. Oh, btw it only comes with one fan stock but has a front-mount for another. At least mine did... That, and it was $99 CDN.
I like koolance towers, liquid cooling comes with the case. Makes for a good deal around 300 bucks <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

<a href='http://www.akasa.co.uk/spec/cases/spec_ak_bkcse_01.htm' target='_blank'>Akasa Eclipse</a> Best case I have ever owned. I have nothing bad to say about it. Brilliant build quality, cooling and very quiet.

I'd say go with one that can take an APFSDSDUAT round over one with LEDs. Sure, the one LEDs will look pretty, but will it save your life?! Huh, will it!
Seriously, the cheiftec cases are nice big ones for a good price and you can always mod them later. As for ones with built in LEDs, they will cost more simpley because they have leds and they have an excuse to make the price ungodly. But a case, learn how to use power tools and design it your way.

Mine cos £82.50, which is $151.58. Kinda pricey for those just wanting 'a case' but worth every penny if your looking for something good. Has lots of modding potential also.

Classy and sobre ftw. (Sonata or Lian Li)

I have a Sunbeam Transformer, and it's damn good, but it cost me €91.
It comes with a 10cm green cold cathode, a 120mm out fan, and an 80mm intake fan on the top.
It has space for 2 more 80mm fan's in the window, and an 120mm one on the front.
You can find pics of it <a href='http://www.sunbeamtech.com' target='_blank'>HERE</a>
