Cheapest PC case that'll fit a 360mm AIO?

I'm planning to upgrade my pc & want a new case as well, because my current one can't fit a 360mm AIO.
I'm having a hard time finding them, searching for a budget 360mm pc cases just brings up results from all different sizes & I'm looking for the cheapest one,
The case will be tucked away out of sight, so I don't care at all about the looks or quality of it, just the bare minimum to hold a mobo with a 360mm cooler.

i would guess that the cheapest chase that would fit the cooler would also destroy any cooling advantages that it would bring.

The Deepcool CC560 is dirt cheap for a case that comes with 4 fans ($65 CAD) and the cooling isn't offensively bad. I've used a handful of these at work for PS120 cooled 5800X builds and they never have any thermal issues.

Montech has good options like the SKY TWO, XR and the AIR 903 Base/MAX, Phanteks has the XT lineup
If the AIO is not a Arctic one, you can go for either of those options but if it is check if it fits on the case you pick since they have thicker radiators and may not fit properly, the Sky Two fits it perfectly as I have tested it

I was hoping to use the Arctic III Aio.

Then you'll have to look around and see if it fits on the case, I was going to buy it with the Montech Air 903 MAX but then I saw a video where the guy could barely fit the AIO on the Base version which comes with 120mm fans on the front instead of 140mm on the MAX, a background commenter even said that it won't fit on the MAX version
