I am thinking about buying this case for LAN gaming i want to start doing it but.......... my parents really dont wanna lug my case & monitor and the shit to it........


So...im looking at this and a lcd monitor
I am not planning on buying it anytime soon when prices for p4 mobos go down its goign to have a radeon 9000 probably so i would like to get a decent FSB

How much would it cost to build for a semi decent not top of the line cube system and where do i get parts for it?

Do regular mobos and the such fit in it?

by the time you have the comp, you'll have your drivers license, or at least close. and no, you need the tiny mobos.. i think anyway. If it were me i'd just save that $ for more stuff for my good comp and take that to lans, dont be lazy 8)

[Jason425]

prometheus: they're called mini or micro-ATX formfactor motherboards. Also they require a smaller PSU. These smaller sized PSU's are generally available in 1U and 2U. The annotation for the sizes are based on server & rackspace used.

also that barebone case comes with the mobo and PSU
onboard video too

but if you want gaming, you might want to be like AI, get a decent card that will fit and shove it in
just be prepared to handle a hot system though
airflow in those things arent good

yeh ill 1.leave the side off
2.find a GOOD cpu fan
3.Ram heatsinks

[eviltechie]

a decent case fan too

just dont expect to overclock much with only 200watts of PSU

i dont plan too at all
