My current plan is the 3000slk: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Showim...+Case+-+Retail

A pa160 wil fit nicely after removing the lower drive bays. A passively cooled Antec Phantom 350 will power it, with a blow hole directly over the psu to help cool it. I may put a vertical partition in the case so that exhaust from the pa160 flows straight up and out one of the 5.5" bays.

The 120mm exhaust will draw fresh air from the side panel to cool mosfets, NB, vram and such.
