After loggin on before and discussing a build I ran into problems that ill not go into here, but after sorting it all out, I am back and ready to begin building a rig.

As a result of the problems, my cash flow took a hit, and I now cant afford to just go out and buy everything right away. Am also gonna need to hold back on some of the less essential bits of kit, and re-use (if I can) kit from my old pc.

I sat back down and re-read all the old advice, and I have a rought idea what I want in the rig, but money will have to be the commanding force in this one.

So....why am I posting in cases? well, as i looked tru the pricing for CPU's, monitors etc, I thought that the only way the price will go for these over time in down...so why buy it now when I might not be able to afford it till later (when the price will drop!) also, I have no home net connection anymore, and will have to wait until I get broadband installed to get online and really appricate the rig) So my logic has ended me here...if I can only afford to buy a few things, I should start at the begining.

A case.

I dont really want anything fancy, nor expensive, just a cheap, simple, well equiped case, that will allow me to put in, hopefully, a mobo with due core CPU and enough space for any other cards/kit that I eventually have the cash for. Any suggestions?

This case will be stored my attac and used mainly for net surfing, and gaming.
