    Is this Case/PSU Okay?

    I might be getting a new case (although getting more unlikely by the minute ), so I want something fairly cheap (top around £40 (I know, I'm cheap)). This appealed to me, but I'm not so sure about the cooling in it:

    Also, would the PSU be enough for:

    Athlon XP 1800+ (Overclocked)
    Abit NF7-S
    2xTwinMOS PC3200 256mb
    ATI Radeon 9600
    1 HDD
    2xCD drives

    Thanks

    Mike

    I would get a CWT PSU, but unforunately its just the case for now. Just useful that it comes with a PSU already, just wondering whether I will actually need a new PSU.

    Anyone got any comments on how good the ventilation is? Or can someone recommend me an alternative for a similar price?

    spend a little more now and less in the long run

    get one of these,absolutely brilliant case for the money,used one the other day on a pc build for a friend.

    you really shouldn't skimp on the psu as any 350w 'free with cheapy case psu' probably won't last too long,a few 'cheaper' psu's i've used to power systems like yours with no problems here and here
