Enermax Case


my mom recently bought me a ENERMAX Blue Aluminum ATX Mid Tower Case With 400W PSU
http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduc...124-106&depa=1 and i was curious if it was a decent case, and would my nf7-s2 AMD mobo fit in it? :], and what do u think about the PSU :\

Your mobo will fit fine. Not a bad looking case at all and cant go wrong w/ Enermax. The 12V rail has a lower amperage than id like to see, but all in all, you shouldnt have any troubles!

The only thing wrong with that case is the Power-up PSU. I have a different Enermax case with the same Power-up and I can not get stable power. OK is you are not looking to overclock but if you are looking to overclock --> not a good PSU. I had to get a Termaltake 420W PSU for $34 to get my system stable.

The whole reason i got this case was because it was semi cheap and looked pretty cool, im not overclocked but i got it because i thought that my old power supply was causing spikes, im not sure but i've narrowed it down to the motherboard and ram so far. what do u think it could be and would this case be ok for cooling?

Cut the fan grills out and replace them with metal finger guards. Otherwise, it seems like it has a good cooling setup.
