    Hi,

    my elara antec overture 2 case power supply started giving off a high pitched noise latey and I ask Elara about a return.
    I check and I was 4 days within my warranty :)

    anyhow - they can give me a credit for the full case as Antec do not make the Overture 2 anymore.

    so - what elara media pc case would ye recommend ??
    Same format as the overture 2 - desktop - Atx - will be going under an lcd in the living room.

    Saw the Fusion but thats M-Atx and not ready to change internals yet.

    edit - might I be better off - changing over to a M-atx board (socket 775) and go with a Fusion.
    question - will my ATX ram etc just transfer over to a M-ATX

    yeah the ram will no problem..just be careful the case will take full size pci cards if you are using any...that might be a problem

    looks like the Fusion case is the same height as the overture so the pci-e card should be ok.

    any other case recommendations ???
