I'm going to put together an Athlon 1800XP system in the very near future. I'm wondering if I should look at any specific case for it or if my current one is fine. I think it is a Daiwa case. It's been awhile since I even thought about my case.. :) I have geard mention that a typical case may not have enough airflow for the hotter running Athlons. Is this an actual concern? Especially if I am going to be overclocking the proc?

Almost any case should be fine. Your system and cpu temps may be high with little no air flow, but the cpu will still work fine. As for overclocking, you'll be better off with a case that has some air flow.
