I'm looking into getting a new case and power supply. I'd like to buy a case that comes with a power supply and was wondering what the best value brands are?

Newegg has a lot of Rosewill cases for good prices, any thoughts on those?

I'd like a case that isn't boring, cools well, and comes with a power supply (i'm looking into getting a BFG 6800gt, so it would need to power that).

Any suggestions?

that antec case is nice, but i'd prefer one with a side window. will 350 w. be able to power everything sufficiently.

i'm looking to keep it under $100.

Cant go wrong with the Sonata then IMO. I think a psu with atleast 20 or 22 on the +12 will be adequate for your rig. That is a good looking case green. Like a lian li on the looks. Eclipse you could go greenman's case then this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817103928
right at 100$ b4 shipping. Happy shopping!

it is a nice case. I got one about a week ago cuz i needed a smaller case, it was $37 shipped. they could be charging $10-15 more and it would still be a good deal. and for another $75 pick up an OCZ modstream 450w PS to match it. course he'd need some case fans, I use vantec stealth in mine and they're quiet. the dealsonic case also have TWO intake fans

nice case, but it falls on the boring end of things....

i was looking for something a little more interesting than that, it doesn't have to be bright green or anything, but i'd really like a side window b/c i have 2 blue LED fans.

how many watts should i get for my power supply? will 400 be enough or should i go 430 or 480? i'm looking at the 6800gt, and i'm running a 3.2 prescott

it's not really boring, it's simplistic. I for one don't really care for swinging doors on cases, or gawdy plastic alien crap hanging all over every corner. it's almost identical to several Lian Li models. The brushed aluminum front is very nice, the bezel is thicker than the side panels are. As for a side window, cut your own. for less than $20 you can cut your own window and put it anywhere you want.
