Buy case now or after Pentium 4 gets released?

Hey, I'm in the market for a mid-tower sized case, but I heard that when the Pentium IV is released, it's mobo will require a different case & a different spec power supply. So would it be better just to wait to see what happens or just get an Antec now?

You'll need an ATX 2.03 compliant power supply, it has another connector specifically to give extra juice to the CPU. Most current PSU's already have it though. The main case change is that it will need four holes in the motherboard tray for the P4-heatsink. This is what I've read, but it may be different by the time the P4 is released.

I see....yeah I think I'll just wait then.
