I need a nice, cheap case that would be good for my system. This is what I found on amazon and its good cause there's no shipping. Do you think it will suffice for a system with these specs, or should I be looking at something else:

MSI K8N Neo4-F or MSI K8N Neo4/SLI(Not Sure Yet)
3000+ Venice
2x512 OCZ Premier
200 gb Maxtor Ultra ATA/133

I'm not sure about my graphics card rite now but it'll prolly be a 6600GT and my dvd should be a regular dvd rom or maybe a dvd-rw if i can find one for cheap. Thanks for any input.
 
The SLK3000-B with a bit stronger of a PSU (or perhaps the 3700-AMB) would be a better choice for that.
But even with the 3700, you may have to upgrade the PSU if you go SLI.

.bh.
 
those reviews on amazon said that 350 was enough to run their systems...what do you guys think...can you find somethign on amazon cause there is no shipping on there.
 
The SLK2600AMB you have the link to has a 300W power supply. I'd stick with Antec, but go with a case with a 350W power supply or higher. I would suggest the SLK1650-B or the SLK2650-BQE.

Wattage means nothing, look at amperages for each line on the PSU. The 12V line is most important, and the Sonata delivers 24A vs the Aspire's 20.
 
Case w/o power supply for $36 plus shipping:
Compucase LX-6A19 beige
Compucase LX-6A19 black/silver

$53.50 plus shipping for a good power supply:
ATHENA POWER AP-P4ATX50F12 ATX12V 500W Power Supply

This combo will probably cost you a bit over $100, but I don't think anyone would argue that quality is lacking in either component. The Compucase is legendary for having good airflow and being built like a tank. The Athena Power unit has the 24 pin ATX power connector your motherboard choice needs plus puts out some serious power.
+3.3V@35A, +5V@61A, +12V@28A
It is a "quiet" design and has a sexy chrome/titanium finish.
