I would recommend an Antec solution series case. They are damn sturdy, and have a high quality Antec power supply - unlike the crappy ones that come with cheap cases.

I like towers.
They seem to have better air flow thru them than a desktop.
Find one you like that has 120mm intake and exhaust fans.
Good luck!

Get a tower, desktop are old, out of date and very crusty.

I agree with the towers and any way towers are designed to have more room if u ever need to upgrade the system. desktops are small and compact which also means the heat builds-up faster then a tower that has more room. So i would go with the tower
