Q: I have a new case with decent PSU. I want it to be not like the sound asleep super cheap entry level available.
The Anands Guide recommends the case-edge/Foxcon TS-01, which is available for $ 50 shipped on newegg. It has a 300 W power supply, which should be enough, but it is not much.
Just wondering if there are better deals in my price range with better nutrition. I would prefer a black case and I can separate case and PSU as long as it fits into my budget.
Thanks get

I tried the Powmax and it is very flimzy. The entire case shakes and the motherboard tray flexes to the point the it I insert or remove cables and addon cards my momobo ming brake.
Are there any Antecs with exposed drives. Recent ones have a cover?
This is mine (http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=11-129-125&depa=1), the price has really gone up since I got it around a year ago (I paid about $70 shipped IIRC), but I can definitely vouch for its quality – it's built like a tank, has good ventilation, is very ergonomic and has no sharp edges.

Prices seem to go up and down a lot on cases for some reason.
