Help in reccommending a case..

Okay...when I bought my case 2 years ago I bought this case..

Enlight 4 bay

but soon realized that i didnt need all that space and I only have 2 drives...dvdrw and rw..but now my cdrw took a dive and im down to one. The problem is is that case is just too big. I recently put together a system for my father-in-law and got him this case.

Enlight 3 bay with swinging mobo door

Which I like a lot better. The problem is is that I bought a 350PSU for my original enlight because the 300wat was not enough. Anyway, can i get a case without the PSU and save a few bucks? Also..I was thinking of possibly doing some led work or something...I think it would look cool, but I would be worried about how bright it would be at night if im dl or something and its in my room....Anyway, LED case or not, I need something smaller to replace my monster. Im looking for possibly sticking with beige since the rest of my system is still beige. Nothing too expensive either...Can I buy an empty case? EDIT: I see on Newegg that you can, so that answers that particular question. Any ideas? Thanks 🙂

EDIT: I see some cases for $25 that come with a 430 PSU...Geez, why get one of those to replace my 350..they must be a crap brand?
 
Problem is most smaller cases require micro-ATX mobo. For a full ATX mobo you're gonna end up with at least a 3-drive case.
. Run a search on newegg using their case configurator tool and use change only 2 - 5" bays as the parameter and see if anything comes up that will fit ATX. Only problem with that is that newegg isn't very consistent when writing their descriptions...
