I'm building a system for a friend, and need
help finding a economical & adequate case.

I would also appreciate comments on the config

ECS K7S5A (Newegg:$54)
AMD XP2000+ (Newegg:$94)
Volcano 6Cu+ (Newegg:$12+$6)
Crucial 512MB PC133 (CT64M64S4D75) (Newegg:$59)
Western Digital 20GB 7200 (Newegg:$66)
Sony 16X DVD-ROM (Newegg:$41)
Logitech KB+Mouse (Newegg:$15+$4)
Sony Floppy (Newegg:$8+$5)
OEM ATI Radeon 7000 64DDR w/ TV (Newegg:$38+$5.50)

This is not intended to be high-end gaming machine or
any such. I was hoping to keep the budget under $400.
I was keeping the config minimal while selecting best
of class for each component.

I am already at $407.5.

I'd appreciate suggestions on case (type & source) and any other
ways of cutting costs.

Go w/ the En-light Mid tower case 340W P/S model EN-7280 for $59 (newegg). I have this case w/ ecs k7s5a mb, this mb needs 28A at 3.3V, which the power supply has. How about the XP1600 for $52, save you some $.

Just a warning, be careful with that K7S5a mobo.... It can be be absolute BITCH sometimes... I've had 3/5 of rigs i built with that mobo die... Other 2 work well, but not worth the risk IMO.

I would spend an extra $30 or so and get the
Soltek - SL-75DRV5-C.

VERY nice mobo....

Doubt you need 512 MB of ram. I would cut that down to 256. And go with the 1600+ or 1700+ XP.

I just built 2 2200+ systems on the K7S5A with no problems and a friend of mine built a 1700+ on that board last week as well. For all 3 systems we used Antec SX630II cases (very nice). I've also heard basically nothing but good reviews of the extremely inexpensive K7S5A.
