Re: [PLUG] Computer Case recommendations?


microcenter.com

You can pre-order for pickup in the store, as well...

It is not online but microcenter in saint davids has a nice selection of cases. I built my little brother a machine with a case he picked out at microcenter. They are reasonably priced and plus you can see the case in real life before you buy it.

    Hi All

    A bit off topic but here goes..
    I would like to build a new computer with my young son 11. This
    will be a nice father/son thing also will teach him a bit how all
    this stuff works..
    The reason for my query is this..
    I don't have much desk space and I want to have the computer case
    take up as little real-estate as possible..Right now I am not sure
    if I would go with a desktop or tower unit.  Depends on how big
    either might be..

    Can someone recommend a case and suitable motherboard for the
    following simple requirements..
    Dual boot box..Windows and Linux..Preferably two harddrives
    Mid level gaming box..some type of nvidia
    I have been looking at something like the Antec Aria that takes
    baby ATX boards, but that might be underpowered for what I am
    looking for.  Also I am not sure if these are even made anymore.
    The quieter the case the better!
    While I am at it..what are your favorite online places for
    purchasing such equipment!

    Thanks for any suggestions..
    Dan
