Here is the rig... what case?

The following is a set of components I have purchased for my new rig:

1. Intel P4 2.4C
2. 2x512 MB DDR 400 MHz RAM
3. MSI Neo 2 (Intel 865PE)

I am going to exchange the video card I purchased for a Radeon 9500Pro, 9600Pro, or 9700 non-pro, depending on price (I erroneously purchased an ABIT Siluro 256MB DDR RAM GeForce FX 5600 DT).

Here are the other components that I am salvaging from my current computer:

1. Soundblaster Live! 128
2. 40x CD-ROM
3. Disk Drive
4. Linksys Network Card

My question is: What kind of case would I need? How much juice? Should it have side fans and such; I want to keep this cool and silent. Also, if I want to overclock the processor, what equipment should I purchase? I am not going to order a case or fans over the internet; I am just asking for mainstream components that can be purcahsed at my local store here:

Thanks in advance.

Damn those prices are crazy at that store !
You'd save your self a lot more $$ buying from online, especially if you consider for instance the Lian-Li PC-65 priced at $259+tax at your local store compared to $158 +$10 shipping @ Newegg

 
Go with the herd ... Antec, Chieftec in the mid-range. Raidmax is ur budget is tight. At that price, why not get a Kingwin from newegg?
