I am planning to buy this computer case, good idea?

I am planning to pick this up: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.as ... -_-Product

I like it because it is a small case with a clean look in front. So what do you think? I am planning to put in my motherboard with CPU (AMD Athlon II X3 425), 1 SATA drive, and 1 SSD, that is all. The power supply is good right?

Just also want to know if there are other similar style of computer cases I could consider, that would be helpful.

Thanks RFD.

Only thing to consider is it'll probably be pretty loud =\

275W no-name PSU is never a good idea, not even for what you're looking to run. Obviously you don't need much power at all so pretty much the lowest wattage decent brand would work.

The people who bought seem to be fine with it. The reviews are mostly good.

Seems Okay? Except that there is a lot of complaints claiming the fan is to loud and that most of them had to replace it.

Rule 1, never read the positive reviews on Newegg and Tigerdirect, ignore them, read the complaints instead and see if they're all common. If they're all the same kind of issue, then that's a serious problem.
