I was having trouble deciding on a case type for my new build. The specifications will be something like this.
AMD/ATI dual or quad core with a supporting motherboard.
Either a 3870 (4850/70???) or an 8800GT
PC Power and Cooling 610 Watt PSU
Either 4 or 8 gb of DDR2
An ATX motherboard with Crossfire/SLi Support
And so it comes down to the case. I am having trouble finding a reasonably priced and featured case for this build. I was looking at the Raidmax Smilodon, but I hear that that PCP+C PSU is slightly bigger than usual-one person reported he had to install it upside down. And so I began to worry about case room. It would be nice to have enough available space for SLi or Crossfire in the future. I am also up for recommendations on motherboards..... preferably under $150, and preferably from newegg. Please recommend cases. Keep in mind that I found the Nine-Hundred too expensive and ugly and the P180 possibly too simple, I would like a side window. Even the P180 is a bit steep for my price range.
