Here's the scoop.
If i get it with the 300W PS it's $47.00 more AND I have to pay tax because they are in Texas, and so am I.
But at Allstar it is $56.00 with the 300W PS included, and NO tax... altho freight would be more. Soooooo I am thinking that Allstar is the way to go. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/

This sounds dumb, I know...but hey, it's me...just be careful ordering. They list the A500 right beside the S500. The A case has a funky lopsided power supply--don't want that.
If you want, you might consider getting an extra set of 5.25 rails for that third bay just to have on hand (under Case accessories)--only 2.00 for a set. Nice to have on hand, because, if you aren't careful those things are easy to bend out of shape. Also under Motherboard accessories, they have packets of those mobo screws--one pack of 8 costs a buck.
By all means, QOH, go with the better deal.
Ammendment to my post above: They can't take orders for less than 10 bucks and it'll cost 6 to ship it ground UPS. If you have access to a good computer store, you might be able to pick these up--BUT, those rails may be S500 specific and only available from the vendor. Might want to throw them in with your order. That way, you have a complete set for the case. I ordered a few other items just to throw in my tool kit and have on hand.
Allstar doesn't have any "accessories" like the screws or rails. I will order those, and the fans from Directron. The fans could have been ordered with the case at the bottom of the page along with the case if I had ordered from Directron. Since I'm not getting the case there, I looked for fans separately (at Directron)and I see a whole page of them but there are 8cm but no 3". Is it the first one one the left ?
And where did you find the extra rails ?

Roger that. 8cm x 8cm fan = 3" x 3" fan.
EDIT: Extra rails are listed under "Case Accessories"

greengoose: having no problem here. Maybe clear out your history and temp internet files might help. Could be a glitch with your ISP also. I think we may need to start a new thread here--this one's getting quite long.

I'm ordering the 2 fans and case rails and screws now.
Choose a connection.
3 pin to motherboard or 4 pin to powersupply.
....I want powersupply ?
I ordered the case...I think.
They didn't ask for a credit card or method of payment. C.O.D. ya think ? https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
Memory here is best I found so far. http://www.computersonics.com/catalog/memory.htm
Bistro;
And they want $2 for that sheet of paper. Well, https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ don't need it now.
Q_O_H
Add up the figures and might want to make a phone call again, just incase as what happened to me the party failed to get one little item and they would not ship. So, double check. My suggestion only.

I went back to Allstar because it bothered me about them not asking for method of payment and checked the "status" of my order. 0
So I redid the order and this time they did ask for credit card. So now it is definitely ordered. I even printed my receipt. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
Remind me to remind you to tell me which plug bistro so I can order those fans.
Train, Good idea. I don't want them to have any reason for holding up my order. I already called to be sure it was in stock(and just to make sure I really did order it this time https://discussions.virtualdr.com/)

Quick! I gotta have my supper! https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ You want the powersupply plugs (4 pin). Those motherboard plugs are for special purpose--the only fan plug you'll probably have on that mobo anyway is for the CPU heat sink/fan. See ya'll later on tonight.
Well, made my phone call and will pick up case with 300w power supply, motherboard saturday https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
