New case

I am building a new system, and I want to get a case and PSU for under $100.
Here are the specs of system:

AMD Athlon 64 3200+
Asus A8N-SLI 939 nForce 4 SLI mobo
1GB Corsair RAM
Leadtek Geforce 6600GT
Maxtor Diamondmax Plus 9 SATA 120gb


Should I go with Antec for a case? If so which kind and what site has decent prices? Also do I need a 480W PSU for this setup? Can I go lower? Where should I buy one from?

Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

Joe

You need a PSU with at least 25Amps on its 12V rail(s), and for your budget, this Antec case includes a 400W PSU with 29Ams on its dual 12V rails, which is more than ample for your system:

Antec PERFORMANCE TX640B Black Steel

I can't help thinking of Darth Vader when I see that case 🙂 , looks like a good choice though.
