Answer 1

This mobo is "ATX" that means any case that you want must be in the "ATX" family. Most computer cases fall into that category. There are many cases available online at newegg.com or tigerdirect.com. they can also be bought at independent computer stores or Circuit City/Best Buy. Don't spend a lot of $ on your case, sink it into a better video card, memory or a better CPU.

Answer 2

The motherboard is standard ATX size. Here are some Cooler Master ATX cases:

For Hard Drive's you should use SATA, as there is only one IDE connection. Any size will work.
Motherboard has:
Four Serial ATA interfaces with RAID support (four additional interfaces available with optional discrete RAID controller)
One parallel ATA IDE interface with UDMA 33, ATA-66/100 support

Answer 3

Go to the computer shop and tell him:

- You want an Sata2 hard drive (your motherboard is actually a very new one, and sata2 are the fastest hard drives around)
- Tell him you want an Aluminum case (they'll run you around ~$100 but are well worth it due to superior construction...don't get the finicky ones with lights or designs on the front...the best ones are ones with sober designs)
