I believe this comes with an Enermax 300W PS and 3 80mm case fans. Note that free shipping kicks in once you get above $99.00 so just get something else cheap. A la Staples, here's some paperclips.

Great Case and decent deal. Although for roughly the same price I bought the Antec SX1030B from Directron and upgraded the power supply to 350W Enermax. With the New Customer discount ($10 off if ordered on the weekend) My total including shipping was just under $115 and it was delivered within 3 days. Plus its an original retail boxed Antec case so it comes with their 3 year warranty (not that you really need a warranty on a case), and the Enermax power supply is pretty sweet.

Still the free shipping with Outpost is a nice deal, just wished they had the black (charcoal) case.

Specification doesn't mention power supply or case fan. The best case deal should be our free overnight shipped SX830 for $50 after rebate, it is just 3 bay less than 1030.

300W is more than enough suppose you have 2 HD, 2 DVD/CDRW:

CPU(max): 70W
MB: 40W
Video: 30W
PCI/DVD/CD/FD: 10W/each

If you have dual CPU or you will OC your 1.5G CPU to 3G, 350W probably won't be enough.

This comes with a PS, it says 301W right on top. And under cooling fans it has 8cm x 3 so unless they're just throwing numbers out there, it comes with fans.

Actually, if you're looking to get the beige case, I'd go with Provantage.com where you can buy the case alone for $37.90, and you can get an Antec 350W Dual Fan PS for $42. Not sure what shipping is with them though. This way you'd get the a great case and PS for $79, leaving plenty to purchase case fans and such. Just a thought.

I almost purchased Newegg's FS710B, but I read quite a few complaints about the black paint job being a bit shoddy. I really was interested in Chieftec's new PC cases (now they come in both Silver and Blue), but I couldn't find a US reseller (plenty of UK and other Euro's). So I emailed them asking where to pick em up. They didn't respond until after I bought my case and fan from Directron, but they gave me a link to a company that does sell them in the US:

ISI Technologies

Anyway, $98 for a pretty schwank case and 300W PS. They even have the larger cases for $131 with 300W PS. Anyway, just some more info for folks who might be tracking them down.
