I would personally get a Antec Sonata II as they are a nice case and comes with a really decent 450w PSU, and antec is one of the few companies that have a decent psu that comes with a case. Even if you choose to get a diff PSU, you could use that as a secondary, and the best part, it would be free.

As far as cases w/out a PSU would be a TT Shark, cuz they are just an awsome looking case, the black on that is. I am not gonig to be buying another case, as I am custom building my own LEGO block computer case.

haha, when i was looking for a case, those were the 3 chioces i was going to pick from, cept the "chemning" was an Ultra Dragon (never heard of chemning) I would go for the 3rd one. There is so much room to work with inside the case. Also, screwless drives take 10 seconds a peice to put in and the removable HD bays are amazing! With just one click they lock and unlock. There are two that hold either 3 or 4 drives a peice, i dont remember but i drilled out the bottem one to fit my Watercooling pump when i get it. There are some cool mods you can do to the case, like adding a fan to the top surface. Its plain yes, but the simplicity of it is nice. And its going to have tons more room than the other two cases, its bigger than it looks.

Go choice #3! ( i know i will be alone on this one )
