Any ATX case will do. A few brands that are good are Antec, Enlight, and Lian-Li. There are plenty of good cases though - just find one that you personally like.

Welcome to PC Mech forums

Yep - that looks pretty good. I might also add onto the good cases list - Thermaltake makes some very good quality cases. They also come with quality PSUs too. Aspire also makes some good budget cases - just their PSUs leave much to be desired. And yes - that one looks good to me. Just one comment - the PSU looks Generic - vuy a seperate PSU once you get it. Generic PSUs can often permenantly damage systems to the extent that they are often rendered unusable . A good powersupply comes from Enlight, which are pretty good priced, and Enermax, Sparkle, Thermaltake, and Antec (few to name).

Hope that helps,
kram
