Im planning on buying a new case and psu for my sony vaio(prebuilt). As the psu has been running really warm/hot and the rpm on my fans are no near what they used to be at.The case/psu is two years old and its used alot. Im thinking its on its last leg.As of now my temps on everything(mobo,harddrive,chassis,etc) to speedfan is sitting around 100F in idle.Which i think is alittle warm.vid card is at 56C in idle.

So i been trying to find the best deal on newegg and i have yet been able to find anything.Im wanting a really cool case.Cool meaning it cool,colder the better,I like this case http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811156181

every site i read that everyone says that the psu that comes with cases are not that good. So what would be a good psu for me.I dont know nothing about psu so i dont know what kind i need or if the one with the case work just fine for me i have no clue.So what psu will be the best for me?

Big question is will the psu with that case be great for me or should i buy another psu? I dont know what todo.

I attached some of my pc info if it may help.

IF anyone would like to post a case that will keep my pc as cold as it can be with a psu that will work for me and around or nothing higher then $300US

Hope someone could help me.

Thanks alot

$79 for case and 450W PSU... No, don't trust it. A good PSU alone will cost you that much or more.

You get what you pay for, simple as that.

Aye, look around for a power supply that's $75+ and a major brand. Thermaltake, Ultra, CoolerMaster are just a few that are good, but reasonable price.

As for the case, get one that you will be happy with. As long as your current system uses standard layout for the expansion slots and port covers, then you shouldn't have any issues.

If you want to save some cash, Ultra's have been good power supplies, and you can usualy find them pretty cheap.

Cheeze... Asylum tested that case and liked it... alot!

So with what i have to run do you all think that the psu that comes with the case be ok for me or should i buy another one. If another one what watts would or should i buy, I dont think i need a 600 watt psu for what i have in my pc.

True, but it was a case review, not a PSU review. He didn't run it through the riggers of what we would for a review on the PSU. Also we all know that a good PSU cost as much (or more) than that whole case cost.

This is something that I would consider a reason PSU, with a decent brand, and good stats: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817171001

Now this may be a dumb question but will that psu work with any case (meaning it will fit in all cases and will it work with my mobo?

ty

Yea, it should fit most cases. There might be a rare exception, but that is by far a RARE exception.

Also I don't know what your budget might be like, but I really like this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817194003 PSU, and have had awesome luck with Enermax's. Only better luck I've had is with PC Power & Cooling, but they are BIG $$$$.

Do you really think i need a 500 watt psu for what i have in my pc? I was looking at this psu.

Also on the sagitta case would it help to put a 120 mm fan infront? And does the front pannel come off where i be able to clean the fan?

Need? No. I would avoid that Antec because it doesn't have PFC.

Here's a link to a brief explanation of what it is:
