This one is on the high side of cheap, but will definately handle your needs, and has a pretty good airflow for keeping things cool. Only thing you'd have to double check is whether your motherboard is rated for running inverted.
If you want a cheap case, go for an AKASA Zen (Black) ~£30. I have the same case and it fits my 8800GTS fine. However due to the HDD cage facing the mobo and not the side panel you may not be able to use 1 of the 4 HDD bays.
the gts doesn't reach the end of an ATX motherboard so it will fit pretty much anything.
JeanTech Phong 2 would have my vote.
Details here and its only £35.00.

Yeah, I realise the card will prob fit most ATX cases, but I've heard a few ppl have had problems fitting them as they are quite long.
I currently have a eyeQi case, it's big and heavy and has a swing door on the front that makes it unpractical for my needs, i just need simple/cheap.
The zen one looks good to me, £30 or less is all I need in a case - thanks C2Dan! - I won't need 4HDD bays either!
Cheers,

Pic of the front here on the Custom PC review
No sorry, I mean where I have my PC on my desk I can't see the front of it, just the side, so no point having nice one with LED's on front of it etc, thanks anyway!
I should have kept my old cases, threw them away -doh!
