Thinking of making my PC look nice

my current case wheras it is nice and big doesn't really seem to have much ventilation on the front for the fans, also it looks a tad old so I am thinking of getting a new one. I don't want to spend much and am thinking of getting one of the following.

This one looks sleak and is screwless so is quite nice on that front.

These ones have dock-off fans on them so prob provide nice cooling.

Which one will it be???
 
Personally I would never buy a case for looks...I prefer performance.

Also I would stay away from the screwless designs they tend to suck and break easily as well as not secure a HDD thus creating vibration in turn more noise.

Looks nice but I never used any of those 3 cases before. It does seem to have plenty of air flow with 2 on the side 1 in the back and 1 in the front.

Thats what I thought, the one from Maplin seems to have lots of airflow while looking nice, it also seems to have a fan on the back too.

It's interesting to hear your thougts on screwless designs but it is quite logical thinking about it.
 
Don't go screwless - they do suck. Or if you get fan controllers or things non-standard size, it's a bitch to get them in.

I hate screwless crap...I tore it all out of my Coolermaster 690. All the drive bay holders all the PCI slots plastic holder junk. Using a screw driver is really simple and very effective.
 
yes, screwdrivers are good, so that just about rules out the screwless one although there is one of the same but not screwless for 20 quid...
