Hey guys.. I've had my piece of steel crap (aka my case) for a year now and it just really annoys me. The main reason being, there is no space to put a case fan in the back panel.. so I basically have a crappy exhaust system. The way the case gets "exhaust" is by using a stupid duct thing.. which u guys can see here.

The only thing I'm gona be packing into the case are 2 HDs, 1 CDRW, 1 floppy, and my XP1700. So would a 300W PSU be more than adequate for those things? I'm kinda leaning towards just getting a nice simple Antec SLK2600.. which I can just pick up in any store and avoid shipping charges. My main goal here is to keep the price as low as possible, have a reliable Antec PSU, and have good airflow. Any other recommendations?

i recently picked up a Antec SLK2600 for my friends system. the 300w PSU runs the following system:

8rda+
1700+@ 2200 mhz on 1.65V
9700 pro
80 GD WD SE
DVD RW
CDRW
512 pc3200
2 case fans

absolutely no problems at all. i would highly recommend this case and psu esp. considering it can be had for $50

Check out the Athenatech 747 series at Newegg - I kind of like to have a fan blowin' across the hard drives. + 300W Sparkle, free shipping!
