Those are easy as well. Look for a standard ATX case from a good brand with a decent price and you should be fine. Key is to find a case that suits you. You are going to look at it for a long time, so it's better to get one that looks good for you AND is easy for installation and upgrading.

Don't mind Dirk, he's a lot like Kurt Cobain -only he has stage fright- and doesn't know how to handle his newly acquired star status :)

What's your budget for the case? Both the P180 and the Antec 900 are fantastic cases. Personally, I would go with the Antec 900, it probably will be alot easier to build with since it's so spacious.

lol, no problem at all. I was just seeing that you responded to the OP, but not to me...but then again, my comment was a tad off-topic :). I wasn't upset, just trying (and failing) to be funny. Don't mind me, I just don't know how to handle my own insignificance :-D

i read on some random hardware website that the antec 900 is very difficult case to install components on.  it also mentioned that the hard drive bay area was a little weird which made for an annoying set up?  this is the case i have been focusing on, but can anybody confirm something like that?  or is that guy just nit-picking?

Besides getting a standard ATX case, my only advice is to make sure that the drive bays fit rom drives or floppy drive securely. I picked an Antec case and, any time that I move my rig, the DVD/CD drive slides back and forth.roulettethedog

Which case do you have ? Is it the slk3000b ? That's the case I want to get for my next pc.
