Any bad things about the case, I was going to get the SilverStoneAluminum/Steel Micro ATX HTPC Computer Case GD05B (Black), but the FD is $44 cheaper. I wanted a none tower, but hey $44 cheaper. As long as my ATX PSU & ODD fit I am good with that.
 
I've got a core 3000, which I'm pretty sure is exactly the same but a bit bigger. I really like it, its nice and quiet and keeps everything nice and cool. My only issue with it is the dust filters are hard to clean. Theres not much you can really do other than just hoover it or blow the dust into the case

Any PSU or ODD size limitations? I will be happy to get rid of this ugly case I have now.

I've got a 520w psu (so I assume its a standard/small size) and the only limitation is that I wouldn't be able to fit a fan at the bottom of the case if it was any bigger. optical drive is fine.

but as I said I think they're different sizes so may be worth googling it up
 
I decided on a atx case, how is this one Thermaltake Dokker Lite Mid-Tower Computer Case High Airflow Design VM60001W2Z, I will just move my current board to it.
