Good Case

nMEDIAPC Silver Aluminum / Steel HTPC 180SA Micro ATX Media Center / HTPC Case

Pros: This case is well built. It's not the most sturdy case out there but is it the case you're going to take to LAN parties? Not so much... The case fits well on my audio video rack and blends in with my other equipment. There is enough space to fit whatever you need in this case as long as it's not built to be a hulking gaming rig. There seems to be enough airflow in the case as well. I'm running a stock....yes stock heat sink on an AMD 2.4 ghz socket am2 and it's running at idle 25 degrees Celsius. Under gaming load it's running at about 30 to 32 degrees Celsius. I used the adapter to hook up the processor fan and am letting the bios take care of the fan speed, no problems there, the directions were straight forward on how to hook up the fan to the fan speed monitor. All in all a pretty sweet setup! Got what I expected to get, not a $500 case, but it certainly doesn't come across as a budget build case.

Cons: The power supply exhaust fan blows right at the processor, but as noted above it hasn't affected my temps.

Pros: The card was cheap and performs well for emulation.

Cons: Did not come with a fan as shown in the pics.

Overall Review: Good for budget computers that aren't going to be playing alot of newer games.
