Okay, so you wanna make some cash but you're on a REEEEALLY tight budget yeah?? Check out this case... http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduc...148-023&depa=0 $45.00 after shipping, and the powersupply is actually USABLE!!!! works great for all the builds i've done lately.. here's some pics of the voltages on the power supply and the case while being set up.. notice the amps on the power supply? NIIICE

lol (for what it is at least)

Also: this is the case i've used for my last 3 customers.. thats all.. not for myself or anything.. heh.. my specs in my tag might give some people the wrong impression....

Pimp:
Cheap for what it is
Nice 450W power supply
Adequate ventilation
pretty quiet even with regular air flow case fans
a little "bling" from the two blue "eyes" on the front
large optorite bezels fit behind the door

Gimp:
sharp edges (corners)
stubborn/flimsy back (PCI/mobo area)
dont expect a nexus to fit behind the door lol
