On one computer I had it came with an Alien ATX case. If memory serves
that one had a top fan. The only thing I didn't like about that case was
not enough slots for two drive sleds in addition to the dvd burner. Only

On a previous computer, I had an Alien ATX case. The one drawback with
that case was only one drive slot for a DVD drive. I prefer computer
cases with a few more than that so internal drive sleds can be installed.
