I am planning on building two Athlon XP 2000+ CPU's, with an Nforce or MSI KT3 Ultra2. I'm still deciding.

I currently own a generic case with an Antec pp412x 400w power.

Here is what i'm looking for:
1 case and power that will support an Athlon XP.
1 case alone just like the first case but without a power to put my pp412x in because I can't stand my current case. I have to take the whole top off to get inside. Yuck!

The cases do not have to be super cases, but I prefer the cases to be black with enough room for two HD each, DVD, and CDRW.

I would like to stay close to $100.00 or below for the case and power together, and as low as possible for the case since shipping is such a killer.

Thanks,
Matt

Any case suggestions?

How about the Aopen H600B Mid tower case sans PSU? In Aus they're about $198 with a PSU ($95 US?).

Enlight and Inwin both make nice cases, but you'll still end up with a spare power supply. Of course there's the Chieftec cases with and w/o power supply, but the price difference is only around $5.
