| Post subject: | Athenatech A100 case |
Does anyone have any experience with this case? I'm thinking of getting it for my htpc since I'm on a bit of a tight budget for this project. I read in the reviews on newegg that the psu is not replaceable...and I wonder if that would pose a problem since it's only 200W. |

looks like a nice case... i opted for the antec overture and ran into heat issues due to a hsf combo that was less tan ideal. that case looks great and the ps should be fine assuming you are not going to be doing hardcore gaming and have more than a hdd and dvdrom... |

I didn't look at the dvd drive you chose, but from the reading I've done on newegg and other sites, I know that the drive can hang over the hsf if it's not a shorter drive, and then you have issues fitting the hsf in there...so keep that in mind if you're starting from scratch. |
