Howdy,

I'm putting existing parts into a new case (long story) & while I'm at it I wanted to check that I have an adequate mix of components. A guy put this together for me about 3 yrs ago:

Abit AL8 mobo
Intel P4 3.2 ghz
4X512mb Samsung DDR2 memory
Leadtek GeForce 6800GT 256mb video card
Seagate Sata II 1TB HD (brand new)
Western Digital Sata II 500GB HD (only about 1 year old)
Pioneer DVR-110D dvd burner
Thermaltake XP550NP 430w power supply

Is that power supply adequate for this mix, especially with the Leadtek & AL8/P4?

I broke one of the 2 usb ports on the front panel of my Cooler Master Centurion 5 case, plus I'm having what I think is a hardware problem causing system freezes & crashes, so I'm starting with a new case & working from there.

I'd like to get the same case as above, but had a problem with power surges (& the break) on that front usb. Anybody have a better recommendation for another case that's:

well-cooled
has 2 front usb, 1 IEEE, mic & headphone jacks
about $50 or so
but, unlike any cooler master, comes in beige??? (I know, but a screw-up & I ended up w/ a beige Pioneer dvd-r)

As long as you happy, but if they suggested it would fit then you should be able to return it as not fit for the job, or else sell it yourself, but returning is best if you can.
