The brand is PSI and the model is Comet. They seem to be decent.

My bro and I picked up two of the 400W case for $29 shipped each. This was too good of a deal to pass up especially when shipping was at least $12 dollars. They are tracked and should arrive on Monday.

 

[TEEZLE]

They raised the price to $34 for the 400w one? LMK in case I am clicking in the wrong place.

Thanks

 

[NICKel]

All prices went up looks like the deal is over.....

Got my two 300Watt cases last week....ordered the $25.00 (shipped) cases.....to my suprise, opened up and found the 400W power supply

Not bad...$51.00 (shipped and insured) for two 400W cases.....no case fans, but locations in the rear and front for an additional 80mm fan.

Great for little projects

Thanks for the deal!

Update: I see the case is now $30 for the 300W and $34 for the 400W....the 400W power supply that I received in the 300W case did have the P4 extra 4 pin connector!

Only problem with the case is that the LED cables were too short to reach the headers on the motherboard...oh well!

Dang I should have ordered another one. Not bad even for 45.00 for that comet case.

I also ordered the cheap $25 case with the 300 watt power supply and was quite surprised to find a 400 watt supply. In my opinion it is a very nice case for $25 delivered. It took 11 days to get it but other than that a great deal. I recently purchased an Enlight case @ $78 and this case compares favorably. I would hope that the Enlight power supply is a much better quality unit but at 3 times the price I can keep a couple of these Comet cases on the shelf for a backup

They have deals on other cases too.

Mixed reviews at reseller ratings.

Try this company, I ordered their case, it work very good and offer the better price.

Thanks.

Just got me a $25 /w 400W ATX /w P4 connector.
They also free- upgraded the power supply from300W.
Happy with the PS.

The case quality is not that great, but not all too important. Few bumps and dent
from shipment brutality. blame UPS guys

But for $25 shipped, this gives people who spend a premium with antec, etc a run for their money!

Glad ordered before price jackup.

Nice deal!

Is the motherboard tray removable on this comet case?

 

[NICKel]

Has anyone tried this with an ECS K7S5A board? They are very picky on PS ??

Also has anyone ordered a 300 watt unit lately and been upgraded to 400?

Received my 300 yesterday and it still had the 400 in it!

Don't know about the K7S5A...but am running two ECS K7AMA's with XP1600+, 128DDR, cheap 32M vid card, harddrive, CD and floppy (+ 3 fans) and all run great so far!

Will run XP1600, ECS L7SOM, 128M DDR, HD, floppy, CD + 3 fans in this one too.....if you wan't I'll update you to the results.

Oh, the first two systems above have run for over a week without a hiccup!

For those who had ordered and received this case....did it come with the fans, cable, power cord, etc. ????

Mine came with only one 8CM fan, no cable, one power cord, a bag of screws.

BTW, the 3.3V + 5V is only 160Watts. not sure if it enough for a XP 1800+

Was that the 300W or the 400W PSU?

The 300W PSU one.

 

[Lars]

Thanks for the info.

edit: Does anybody here know what the combined 3.3V + 5V output for the 400W PSU is? TIA

 

[NICKel]

Waiting for the 300 watt one to come this week hope its a 400 watt model.

 

[SaturnKnts]

ok so a little confused in this thread. you all are receiving 400w with the little blue and white "CASELCT300" case if i am understanding correctly?

but the comets are only coming in the 300w variety right?

i just like the look of the comets better is why i ask.

 

[spanky]

my 400w comet case had a blue stripe thing in front.
