ATX or mATX?

[perthguy]

am i right to assume atx is the normal case (just for a business pc) rather than m or uATX?

Also, I want to build a quiet pc on a budget more or less, meaning I don't want anything elaborate.

I was looking at the P35 system board, and the NSK4000B case with 12cm case fan at the rear.

Any other helpful suggestions?

Yes atx is the normal case - if you get an ATX case they typically can take uATX motherboards as well as ATX mobos. But not vice versa.

I recommend the Antec Sonata III for budget quietness.

I will second that recommendation. The antec sonata case is quiet and comes with a nice PSU. The Antec 180 line are also very quiet but not really budget. I think Lian Li also has a line of Quiet cases and Lian Li cases are very nice to work with also.
