PC Cases!!!!

Which Case is the Best Case for its Price for a BYOC with: AMD Athlon 4400+, 2gb Corsair XMS ram, 256mb x1800xt GPU, Asus A8N5X socket 939 ATX MoBo, Western Digital 160gb/16mb cache HDD, and Enermax Noisetaker 485W PSU (any case suggestions which have a PSU that is as good or better is also very good ).

I have heard that #3 (the Antec P180) is very good, but i fear that it is also very expensive compared to others... any suggestions? I am trying to save some money so i don't want to spend twice as much on a case which isn't really necessary, thx for the help

Any of the $50 cases will work fine. Personally, I'd go with Antec Solution SLK3000-B. Antec cases are nice and sturdy with good cooling charateristics.

If the P180 isnt possible then my personal next choice would be the centurion 5. Its a really well layed out case for the price. Also as very good airflow design.
