Hi FOlks

Know this question has been done to death but some can be quite spec specific.

THis is the kit I am looking to order (feel free to question it) and I want a case that looks quite good but most of all wil fit the kit nicely and is easy to work on.

COre 2 Duo 6600
Gigabyte DSA3 motherboard
320Gb sata II Seagate HDD 7200.10
Geil 2gb of ram
Corsair 520W PSU
Noctua NH-U12F cooler

Many thanks in advance, the advice som far on this site has been amazing.

Wel this is the hard bit, I mean I am not going for water cooling etc, doubt I will have more than one hard disk etc....the only additions are simple USB cards possibly and graphics card, not SLI at this stage, I have an open budget really without being stupid.

I like the budget of the 7 but as someone pointed out in another review cabling is a bity tight with a DS3 boiard which is the one I am going for...£80 really is my max.

i have the PC-7 its a really nice case, fits my DQ6, 160gb hdd (soon new 8800gtx) and 620w psu with plenty of space, the finish on it is nice (silver aluminium i think).

i can post picys if you want ^^

Only problem with cabling is the wire for the front microphone & speaker ports dont reach past a big graphics card, I dont use the front ports so it isn't really a problem for me.
