Which of these cases is the best in your opinion?
If none of them are good, then tell me wat 1s are good.
Im gona get a P4 w/ 2.66 Ghz, big Soyo Mobo, 2-4 HDs, need many fans, big video card. How many watts do u think I need? What if the Power supply gives the computer too much wattage? Will it fry the system?

ok 1# yes you can fit 4 Hds in it. the Cases are all fine.


1. PSU Can never have to much Watts. But its a bad brand from what I heard.

2. 350 is more then enough for todays needs. and Antecs rule. But with your system I would use a 350 but to be safe a 400.

if you are wanting a latest graphics card, they require at leats a 350W PSU, seeing as you are sticking a whole array of drives in, id go about 400W

and the computer will only use as many watts as it needs, any more power will not fry anything.

I would be looking at someone other than Tigerdirect if I was you. I ran the shipping calculator for first case and it was over $13.00. Check out www.newegg.com or www.mwave.com

If you take a look at www.resellerratings.com you will find out that Tiger Direct is not a good place to buy stuff from. In my experience, their quality stuff is overpriced and the affordable stuff is junk.

personally, i'd say case number one (it looks cool). it should also hold all of the stuff you. Also, i would recommend at least a 350w power supply, but the more you get, the better (as far as i can tell).

Have to agree with Confused and GLC, stay away from them and buy at Newegg or Mwave.

Newegg is my top pick for selection, service and fast ship. Many others here will tell you the same.
