I have an addtronics case. The case is nice and the sides come off but there is not ventilation. I have a fan in the front and one at the front at the top. Unfortunately the cpu is behind the powersupply. If I ever want to do anything with it, I have to take the entire motherboard out just to see the cpu. This has to be bad for ventilation. My only other alternative would be to cut a place in the top of case over the cpu and put a fun there to bring air in on the cpu. Suggestions? Also I have an extra power supply. Could I save money bu buying a case with no power supply? thanks!
 
BTW, I also recommend getting a PSU with a fan on the back of it. My CPU temp went down 10 degrees C and it's overclocked from 600 to a "whopping" 841MHz. Results may vary.
 
Antec Server Performance Series cases
are a helluva choice for the $$

go to www.antec-inc.com

then you can get the sx830 at buy.com for around 86.00 minus 10 off
with a coupon at techbargains
or just go get it at Onvia.com for 85.00 with free ship, but no coupon.

This is a stand up case and their site has some links to a review.

300watt power supply also😉
