I'll go ahead and suggest a Antec SLK3700 ($85.49) for a case. Antec makes great power supplies/cases, and this one is a really great value.
Please note that Antec boosted the specs for the +12v rail on their entire line of power supplies awhile back, and newegg hasn't yet updated all of the images.
This is the correct and updated specs of the power supply for the Antec SLK3700. (21A on the +12v rail)
It also looks pretty good without being overly bling-bling.
