Whats the deal w/ Cases and P4's?

[Techno]

Hello,

I ordered a Case from colorcases.com last wendsday and today went back to the webiste just to drewl over the pics of the case i bought. I was looking at a few more and saw some say they are ready for P4 and others that are not. I was thinking and i thought that it was the PS that had to be P4 Compatible not a case. None of the cases at the website even comes w/ a Power supply so i don't understand how a case can say its P4 ready or "All Intell motherboards except P4".

Can someone explain this to me.

P4 case needs mounting for the HSF.

Pentium4 motherboards have holes in strange places, so the case needs to have holes in the same places so you can mount the mobo inside the case. Most newer cases now have such holes, that's why they say they are P4-compatible even without mentioning the power supply.
