Red did you ever move forward with this case?  I'm building a new machine and am looking for some feedback on the case.

Shame i didn't notice this post sooner Tongue i'm a dab hand at building rigs! The one i'm using now cost me £600 which is sadly $1,190 USD
has
200gig HD space
7900GS 256MB PCI-X
Abit AW9D-MAX (motherboard Rocks!)
2.8gig Pentium D 800FSB
1gig DDR2 667mhz RAM
570W PCI-X Power Supply and make sure it s a 24pin for PCI-X Mboards not 22!
iCute Case and other assorted Gubbins!

atm i'm running 2142 on High Detail but in high pop servers i knock it down the Medium and it runs lovely!
but if you can get the 8800 gts which here the pop for here around £200 in USD thats around $396.92 get it as they run like buggery!
 as for OS i wouldn't touch Vista with a 40ft shit stick! stck to XP Pro at least it's compatable and stable providing it's configered right!

The Above cost me £600 Flat from a Computer Fair which is something i would advise looking up! theres always a one about but remember to get proof of purchase and the number of the dealer that sold you the Hardware

yea, i've pretty much all but discarded the idea of upgrading my computer for a while. What with my van needing some repairs before I go to college, my 360 just bricking out on me, college needing monies from me, and my boss being an incompetent retard with my scheduling, I barely have enough to make ends meet as it is.
