What's the cheapest cherry mx black board that is either 10 keyless or full size 104 with aluminium case ? i have had trouble finding a cheap aluminium case keyboard.

Generally that's because an aluminum case raises the price quite substantially.  If you want a cheap MX black option i'd really recommend dropping that requirement.

The other thing to note is that a cheap aluminum case will look like a cheap aluminum case, you won't find a great alu case for a dirt cheap price. You either need to go all in and spend the extra money to do it right or buy a plastic cased board and upgrade later.
