Newbie Case Question

[GeoffW]

Hello All

I am looking at building a new P4 based PC, not finalised the Spec. yet but I have a question I could do with some thoughts on please ?

I really want a desktop case rather than a tower. Having a P4 system in a desktop case seems to be a rarity, is there a problem with the desktop case re: airflow around the CPU ?

I have been told that a P4 desktop case should have a dished base to help with airflow ? Is this true and if so, has anyone got any desktop case recommendations ?

Thanks for you help

Regards Geoff

There would be no problem running a P4 system in a desktop case. And no special requirements either. Just make sure it has room to install a couple of fans for intake and ventilation and there should be no problem. If you want to see a really innovative one, check out this coolermaster case. Not sure what the price is though. Or just do a google search using Desktop case as the search phrase and you will come up with many options.
