mizako 0 Report post Posted January 25, 2005 Hi guys,I need to buy a new computer case. I always bought my computers all set. I mean with the case properly mounted with everything inside. So, i do not know what parmeters i would need to take into account. The components i am going to put inside are:- mainboard: ECS K7S5A - graphics card ST Labs SIS 315, 32MB - power supply unit: 350W ATX - CPU-Ventilator: Spire WhisperRock IV - hard disk DD 120GB UDMA 7200 rpm SEAGATE- Network card- and RAM memoryAfter looking for a little bit. It seems that i have only to take into account if it carries front usb and if it is cool. Am i right?Tell me what will you ask to a pc case? I want to spend around 40 ?Thanks,Sergio Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cragllo 0 Report post Posted January 25, 2005 Any case you choose should be fine, just check that the case is an ATX...When I build mine, the case came with the mounts and screws, and there where lots of places for the screws to go to fit almost every mobo....
