Sorry for delay, I have reconsidered things! I did not like the term 'monster'!

Have decided to go with 'baby'... server?

I want to pull trigger on this ... but would like some input, one way and/ or the other.

Prices seem reasonable (couple are very good) and I gave in when I found an 8800GTS 320mb for 225 bucks.

I still need a case and power supply (850w+). I have looked through 1000 or so and haven't seen what I'm looking for. I want PSU (modular)on bottom of case, I want a large window. I NEED a large case (see CPU cooler) 4-5.25" bays min/ 4-3.5" HDD bays min, I do NOT need liquid cooled , I want it ALL aluminum at least, and I want 'em both to fall in my budget (<200 for PSU and <225 for a case {NOT WHITE/CREAM})

Any tips?


...and thank you for any and all input!
