Price vs. Cooling/Cool Factor/Wires Case
Well, I'm looking for a relatively cheap case, with great airflow. My price range is sub $75, and I'd prefer it to be cheaper than that. I care mainly about airflow, but I'd like for it to look good as well (as in I hate Lian Li cases. Hate.) All I really want is a midtower. Also, I'm looking for good cables management as well.

Just a tad over your budget but these are the best cases I've found for cooling and cable management under $100:
Newegg.com - COOLER MASTER RC-692-KKN3 CM690 II Basic Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case However, this one is worth the extra few bucks: Newegg.com - COOLER MASTER RC-692-KKN2 CM690 II Advanced Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case A modular PSU will also help a lot with cable management. |

In my opinion, this is the best value case on the market currently. Amazing cooling for the price. Cable management is outstanding as well.

In most cases (pardon the pun) the most you need are two inlet and one outlet fan. It does not take much to get to the point where all you are doing is generating more noise by having more fans.
