I've had the Antec 1000 case for about a month now, and it is absolutely the best case I have ever seen. I will never own another brand of case after owning this one. With all the preset locations for fans, and decently designed fan grates, it is an overclocker's dream. It's built like a tank too - the gauge of the metal is very heavy compared to a lot of cases, so there's absolutely no flex. Alienware uses these cases in their premium gamer's systems. The Enermax power supply looks like a good choice for this case.

You didn't say how much you are going to pay for the Antec SX 1000, but I got mine for only $37.90 plus shipping from provantage.com. I just checked their web site, and the new price is $43.49 - still a good deal. Here's the URL:

You may be better off to get a Antec 1040 case which has the Antec 400W power supply with it. Antec power supplies are really nice and no 5 volt rail problems that many of the Enermax power supplies have. You can usually get that case for around 115.00 with the power supply, check pricewatch.

It's the same case, just doesn't have a powersupply.
