Antec Gemstone Case

Anybody have any experience with the Antec Gemstone line. I really like the look, and can get a great deal on it, and I've heard Antec makes great cases. I plan on building my first computer system at the end of this summer, so all out performance isn't super-important. My main concern is the 250w power supply. I'm going to overclock a Duron, and I'm not sure how much power it will take.

TIA for any help,

They seem like decent cases as far as cooling goes. THe 300W may or may not be enough for a duron. It should be, and i believe the 250watt antec p.s. is AMD approved, but i'm not sure.

The gemstone cases should come with the 80mm exhaust duct for the cpu.

The PP253X is AMD approved, and our Gemstone cases do come with the duct fan for the processor, although there are similar cases without the duct so be on the look out for that.
