Slimline Black PC Case (Desktop)
Does anyone know where I can purchase a compact atx case in black?
Anything with a depth of less that 40cm is what I'm ideally looking for... TIA Ju |

Price is under £20. Having just built a desktop computer (this smart black case from ebuyer) for my father-in-law, I realised the cooling problems associated with modern CPUs in this style case. I had to add two extra case fans in a Duron 1.8GHz, 7,200rpm hard disk and a fanless ATI Radeon 9200 system to get the case temperature down to reasonable levels (50 deg C) for extended usage. I now understand why the midi-tower with PSU cooling at the top and airflow upwards has become so popular. Just a word of warning to buy extra case fans, and expect extra noise from the system.
