Re: I'm going to build a PC
Well, courier arrived this morning to collect the case, and brought out of the van... an identical case

Obviously someone in the warehouse can't be trusted with a pile of stickers.

Cancelled the order - of course - and needless to say no one else has got the Sonata II in stock right now ... got it ordered on Dabs but who knows how long that'll take ...

Really frustrating, especially since the CPU and other hard disk arrived this morning - who thought getting the case would be the hardest part ???

Anyone got any alternative suggestions that I can order today? I need 425 watts +, and it has to be one of the newer types with the 24 pin and extra 4 pin power sockets. And black. I've only heard good things about Antec but I'll happily go for anything that's good quality. And no more than £100 .....

E.g. anyone know if Akasa Eclipse-62 Aluminum Case is any good?

Or can I get the case and PSU separately? If so, what should I be looking out for and how do I know they're compatible with each other/my mobo?

Thanks
