Anyone have a Nice case?

[stiLLmatiC]

Im looking for those case customizers to come and PM me with their nice cases. Im lookin for an ATX form case with a 350 watt PS and maybe a side window. This is going to be a build im going to do with my brother so please keep it cheap. Im looking to pay 25-35 for it. LMK what you think. Pics is a MUST and i would like some case fans =)

you may be able to find a nice one for 35 but shipping would suck.

http://www.amamax.com/amamax/pomaspdagrfr.htmlthis is more your price range...
the power supply that comes with these are really P.O.S. ...
I would spend $22 and get one of these to replace it...

use it to check the actual "in use" specs of the rails...you will see how far off they are. You really would do well to upgrade to the achieve.

power supplies are cheap, i will agree to that, althoug the first case i bought from them has been running a duron 900 for about 5 months now....

To be honest, I have used that PSU from akida in a lot of my recent builds and the rails haven't been that impressive. Albeit I have never had one of those computers freeze on me, the rails can vary up to one volt off in either direction. I don't know if this is all that bad in the scheme of things, but I've spent $15 more on a PSU and have come within .2 volts on each rail. Here is what aida32 says about my current setup (with the same PSU from akida.)

Stant93... dont worry bud...Ive ordered quite a bit from them over the last several months....always gotten everything, and always in good shape. theyre case deals are usually the best deals they have...occasionally I buy a lowend Video card from them when they have a good deal.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Kc2iLq ... huh...thats farther off than any of the ones Ive used in past...you running anything odd off that power supply? possible bad quality wiring in house? (No offense intended)
its always possible to get a lemon no matter what brand you buy....but all in all, for $22 shipped its still a thousand times better than what those "Power Magic" PSU's put out...
