Full Version: Case + Powersupply

Well, after finally installing my new parts today I realised how small my case is (Lanboy) and my powersupply is barely pushing out enough vCore for my rig. My CPU runs 40C - 44C under just normal use (downloading, installing things, firefox) and my cooling is pretty bad on the case aswell (1 fan in the front and that's it......) so I would like a nice case that comes with a nice powersupply, I know most of you would recommend buying a seperate powersupply but I don't have that much cash right now. smile.gif

to find a nice case and power supply together is rare in itself. In fact, you are going to hate hearing "save more cash", but that is what the vast majority of people are going to suggest I'm afraid.

Well, what is more important then? (I was actually afraid I wouldn't be able to find a good PSU and Case together) I would think that the PSU would be more important because it is more than just a visual / cooling additive.

My personal preference would be to get a decent PSU first then move to a new case later on. Nothing worse than having a new case with a PSU that is all over the place and then having to do all the rewiring again later on...

after all, a nice case is great, but even having a lovely PC60 (which i love), i can't see it - it's under my desk!

For a 2-in-1 $180 seems pretty nice, I might just save up a little bit more and get this. smile.gif

Thanks for all the quick replies!
