Cases

[awraynor]

I would like an opinion on the best case for
an Abit BX-6 Rev. 2 using a STEP 300A overclocker with Yukon cooling system. Preferably a midtower with 250W+ power supply. Thanks for your help.

www.tccomputers.com carries the Enlight 7237. Mid tower with a 300watt power supply. $79 I am considering it myself.

There's a large choice of cases. You'll want one that has a vented air intake, a filtered one would be good. Room for additional fans is another feature to look for but they can always jerry-rigged to fit. If your the type that is concerned with clean power, a supply from PCPower&Cooling http://www.pcpowercooling.com/ is the way to go.

A decent line-conditioner is always good to have, Tripplite's will work. Their products can be had for considerably cheaper than the MSRP of course. So don't let the price list throw you; at http://www.tripplite.com/product/conditioners/index.html .

PCP&C makes a couple cases too. As a matter of fact, I just finished a system over the weekend with one of their Deluxe Tower cases. "Roomy" is how I'd best describe it. Wouldn't recommend it for you tho. It's not what your looking for. They do make an all metal Mid-Tower. I think I've seen them for around $60 without a supply.

The best, is to find one for yourself. There are so many. Purple, red, gold and bronze. Horizontal and vertical Compact or roomy. Wood, plastic or all steel. Rackmounts...

..The final decision is always yours.

The following sight should give you a starting point.

Hope it helps..
