I don't know about the cases, but the power supplies are half-decent. I have one in one of my computers. The line noise is above acceptable standards, but that's to be expected.

For cheap power supplies, I've found that the Allied 400W-500W PSUs that newegg has are very good for the price ($28 for a 400W).

Yeah, usually anything that comes with a cheap case is junk, with a few exceptions.

I bought an Antec (ChenMing) SLK2600AMB from newegg that came with an Antec 300W Smart Power PSU. I haven't built the system yet, but the last 300W Smart Power I used was ok. It's good enough for this super budget comp at any rate.
