I'm looking for a case to hold a media pc kind of thing.

It's an AXP 2100+ w/ a geforce 3, so it will be a little bit power hungry.

needs to be:
black
atx or mini-atx (for a small A7N266)
250+ watt power supply

any recommendations? the antec sonata looks pretty sweet, but it's a little rich for my blood.
 
Go to www.pricewatch.com for all your PC needs. I've bought a ton of stuff
from there and am completely happy with my results. A friend of recently bought a case for $32 from a company and its a black and silver case. That price is unheard of anywhere else but the internet. Hopefully that helps.


Happy Hunting :D
 
Hey I got the perfect one for you and its a Chiefmaxfor onlyinsured. I have to say its a sweet case with the side window and a 450 watt ps and Multi-Color LED 80mm Case Fan Included. Fits full size and micro ATX motherboards ChiefMax quality front USB 1.1 or 2 and Audio See through Side X Window. Man I gotta go and order before this ones sold out.

LATES!!
 
I'm not looking for a mid-tower; preferably something that lays flat. And I'm not into multicolor anything except maybe a couple neat looking LEDs on the front telling me when the system is on and the hard drive is accessing.

I've come up with a couple of options, which are both a bit above my price range, but i'm willing to bite the bullet if i can't find anything less expensive.

ANTEC OVERTURE

This case looks way nice. From the pictures, I gather the finish on the front is good, and it looks like it could make a classy addition to a HT setup.

COOLER MASTER ATC-620C-BX1

This one is a bit lower-profile, as far as the aesthetics go. With a power supply, it would be about as expensive as the OVERTURE. Plus it's a smaller design, which is nice, though it would require careful cooling.

Any more suggestions along these lines would be much appreciated.
 
First: I love the A7n266-VM. Great board

2nd: colorcases.com has a pretty cheap one, but i'm not sure how much shipping would be... i think it was $10-15 when i checked it out earlier

Otherwise the other suggestions in the thread are sound
