Where is a good on-line Case shop?

The title says it all. I need a ATX cast for an Athelon 1.33, so 300 watt ps. and id like to get a colored case if possible. Beige is getting dull. Someone recomended a place that sold like 100 plus cases, but I could not find that post in the archives.

Directron is a really good place to get cases.

I looked at directron and colorcase.com. I settled for a fancy looking case from colorcase (no s at the end) for about $90 shipped. If you're looking to overclock, these color cases do not provide the ventilation that you'll need. Mine only has a 80mm intake and 40mm exhaust fan. Way too puny to overclock much. But heck, the case looks cool .

Dude you want the god of all cases? A cases cuter than the girl in the mini-skirt walkin outta Victoria's Secret? Go here. They have some pretty nice cases.

Isn't that where he just said he ordered from?

Thanks, Directron was the site I had been looking for. How much power do I need for a Athelon 1.33? Some of these cases say 250w amd approved, some are 300 and not approved, some are p4 ready, what shouldl I look for in a ps? Help please, I'm geting P/S overload

Approved might mean it was approved for 900Mhz. You'll have to check for what speed the PSU was approved for. With 1.4ghz, you'll be safer with at least an 300 watt psu.

So will a 300 watt+ p4 ready p/s work with an athelon 1.33 and not brun it out?

300-350W should be just fine for any athlon system. I'm not sure what P4 ready means...

p4 ready means it has the 4 wire p4 plug

 

[airis2001]

so i can use it with an athelon then?

Yeah, that drove me crazy too. The P4 thing is just an extra plug that you won't use. I second (or third or whatever) Directron. They have (or had) a deal (look under "discounts&quot where if you order over $100 on the weekend and let them wait until tuesday to ship they knock of $10. I also used an online coupon (websearch for "directron" and "coupon" to get the code if it still works). After the coupon my pre-shipping total fell to like $98 and they still gave the the other discount. I really recommend them. I also recommend the Enermax 350w they carry.
