The selection of a box and smps is determined by what you are putting into it. Suppose its a normal run of the mill system any box with a powersafe 400W smps is recommended Just see the box has an option to pou in an exaust fan. Now if you are into heavy gamming / data manipulation or any other heavy work and will be needing multiple disks etc then I suggest you go in for what is called a server chassis This setup has hot swapable fans for the HDD and processors also the smps is more rugged designed for a 24x7 type of usage. The only drawback of this is the cost these setups are in the range of 5-10K without SMPS.
