    Either an Enermax of some sort (Badged as Enermax) or a Verre 770 or some variation of that.

    just had a narsty thought, does it matter which mobo you have when buying a case? ie so some cases only support P4's and some on Athlons? cos i have seen some cases advertised as being for P4's, not sure about this tho as surely the ATX standard applied to both P4 and Athlon mobos?

    P4 refers to the connector on the PSU to supply extra power for the P4 processors. Nothing really to do with the case.

    Although some AMD mono's are now ustilising this connector for more stable operation... Yay!

    You can get this for £30 mate, which is far Superior to that case.
    You can pick those kind of cases up for below 30 quid now.
    Also, what make is the PSU ?, that plays a big factor.

    Well in my opinion its worth the money, its a nice solid case with plenty of room for fans. Its all fair and well saying "this case is better" or "you can get it for under £30", but when you get these cases and ACTUALLY try them you'll see they are not so similar. Sorry to sound a tad harsh, but I've just sold this case to spud, and no doubt you are all giving him second doubts now!.. and for no good reason I might add.

    Mate, I assure you that all the blue front / side window / fan in the middle / light up power button cases are all the same case, made by the same people.

    1) yes its your opinion, and what i have put is mine. In your opinion its going to be worth that much money isnt it, as your selling it to him.

    2) "but when you get these cases and ACTUALLY try them you'll see they are not so similar" - i OWN the case i linked. I have it becide me now. I have also owned the one in the picture as i build systems for people weekly. The case ive linked is better quality. period.
