I need a suggestion for a case, that includes fans and a 900+ W power supply... Money limit is around $300.... Thanks guys!

Well then. How about a QUIET case, power supply and fans. Not exceeding $300?

Suggestion: dont EVER depend on ANY power supply that comes with the case you  buy.

Just find a case you like, and then spend the rest on a high quality  PS.

Think of it this way, you dont put shitty low grade gas in your car.  Dont put shitty low grade electricity in your computer lol

Yeah, that's pretty much the only pre-installed 900w PSU that'll come with a good case.

Get that.

I think we all meant 900W minimum, not exactly 900W (I know I did).

That's the one I originally planned to get, but it was too much.

P180 Black - $130 (or just $80 after a rebate!)
Thermaltake Toughpower 750W - $190

Total = $320 (or $270 if you include the rebate)

Why do you need a 900W PSU? That is very powerful.. almost too powerful! A 750 Thermaltake Toughpower is pretty insane.

900W is still WAAAYY more than you'll ever need for SLI.  btw, $300 bucks could buy you a lot more cool shit than 1 case + 1 power supply.  just buy a $50 case, a $150 power supply(if you must), and spend the rest on cheeseburgers .....mmmm....cheeseburgers

Do not skimp on a case

This isnt to say you cant get a nice one for $50, but you get what you pay for, my sisters case was $30, looks pretty awesome with side windows and built in red led light tubes and such(with a 450w PSU) but the mounting racks for drives can be bent with you hands and putting any weight over 10lbs ontop the case leads to groaning and popping noises. Horible case, but lookcs good and is fine for her pourpose, my Antec case on the other hand is one of the lower end cases(had no choice in cases) and Ive seen one(components inside of course) go tumbling off a table with nothing but a dent

I am currently in the process of custom painting an old case, if you want I can sell it to you. PM me if you are interested.

I agree. But 900W is still absurd. 800W is more than enough for 8800GTXs in SLI. Unless he's going the Xfire HD2900XT route (and the newer ones with 1GB memory look pretty good), it's overkill. I doubt it's for quad SLI, since it seems a bit low for that.

Get a nice case, get a nice PSU - but don't get a 900W one. It's crazy!
