well like always i never suggest someone building a computer without experience....

But to be more useful.....

The case and the power supply most of the time come together. All cases are the same just find one you think looks cool and make sure its ATX or your motherboard isent gona fit.

For the power supply the more watts the better but its not that big of a deal.

cd rom shouldent matter much as long as it reads a good amount of formats.

This case looks good, should i get it? Also if you scroll down there is a deal i get if i buy that power supply... should i?

Also, i am building this with my madrey who is a tech geek and built computers before.

That mobo and processor is a solid choice, I have that same mobo and for over a year its been great (my processor is the 4600+ but its not much difference) but if you want to do gaming I would recommend a core 2 duo, but that processor is still fine for gaming (also http://www.newegg.com > * for computer parts)

For a case I would recommend a standard ATX case just for the extra room for later use and if you never plan to get a video card other than your onboard one get roughly a 500w~ PSU with at least 2 PCI-e 6 pin connectors
