Which case?

No, I haven't pressed the Checkout button yet :) As the PC will be screwed under the desk, I don't want anything on the topside of the case, and I need something quiet and a bit smaller.
 
No the PC will be screwed under the desk to the underside of the desk with a metal bracket. This allows the cables to move with the desk when it is in "standing mode", and is good for airflow, reducing dust slightly. The case in my basket is not suitable because of the top, any other suggestions?

**edit**
Actually I thought about getting one of these and ditching the PSU, what do you think? http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-043-OP
 
OK, I think this is the final setup. I've decided to use my old case and put the old bits from my old case into an older case.

Did you not say in your other thread that you needed to power 4 monitors with DVI? The graphics card you listed will only support 1.

I think that the cheapest option for up to 4 monitors would be 2 of these.

Hmm, well the mobo has these sockets: 1x D-Sub, 1x DVI-D (up to 1920x1200), 1x HDMI (up to 1920x1200) and the graphics card I selected has these: 1 VGA, 1 Dual-Link DVI-I & 1 HDMI. That's a total of 6, or am I missing something?
 
Thanks for the reply. I'm happy with using one of the monitors on DVI through the HDMI, the other one DVI, and the third with VGA (the monitor I have accepts VGA). It seems like a lot of money when I don't really need to spend it. I'm actually wondering if the on-board graphics will be good enough to power 3. I don't need 4 at the moment. Will the onboard power 3 monitors?
