    Does any body know where I could pick up a cheap (€10) case from an old Dell or something, just building a pc for my sister and have all the parts just need a case and none of my friends have any. Thanks.

    I have a dell case with a power supply and mainboard, socket 478(Intel), so dont think it would suit you.

    Dell cases probably won't work. Everything Dell is like a mass custom and I don't think their cases confrom to the ATX standard which your mobo probably does.

    I'd suggest maybe post in the wanteds section of adverts. Sure somebody can tell ya either where to pick one up or will donate one to the cause. I constantly see them in skips around DCU. Unfortunately their usually Dells.
