    I would say a Gigabyte one for Intel P4 and a Tyan one for Intel P3, but this is my personal opinion

    Anyone of the following places:

    www.scan.co.uk
    www.aria.co.uk
    www.ebuyer.com
    www.komplett.co.uk
    www.simply.co.uk

    All very good, and all around the same prices, you might find one or two of them are a little bit cheap ( charge less for delivery etc).

    Kind Regards,

    Those shops sell a poor range of 1u cases.

    try TMC computers or ACME computers.

    I wasnt suggesting you were - however he did ask for 1u cases - therefor i commented on the fact that the suppliers you suggested dont sell a good range of 1u cases.

    i dont hold any of those suppliers in high regard - had problems with them! But he hasnt got much choice if hes buying retail!

    Makes sense to get a business account then

    We use cases from:

    Acme
    PCI Case
    or Scan

    Depending on the server we're building.

    Why can't you get a business account then? Quite a few of the places we deal with are trade only (ie they require a ltd company and VAT registration number before they'll deal with you).
