Welp, Im putting together a modest Home Theater PC system:

- P4 2Ghz
- 256 Mb DDR RAM
- Creative Audigy 2 Sound-Card (non-Platinum)
- Creative Inspire 5300 Speakers
- Hercules' All-In-Wonder Radeon 7500 Graphics Card/TV Tuner

I've read case guides here and there, but still have no idea what "case league" am I in:
- Do I need a mini/midi/full tower ATX??
- What's my power supply needs, does it go above 300W?
- What's my cooling needs, is the above configuration a massive heat producer?
- What's my silencing needs? will it get noisy?

I'd very much appriciate advice about my whole planned system, and about the case questions. Won't pay money or dance like a monkey, but be appreciative still.

A dektop style case would more easily integrate into your existing entertainment system <A HREF="http://www.newegg.com/app/viewProduct.asp?description=11-126-115&depa=0" target="_new">This would look GREAT</A>, <A HREF="http://www.newegg.com/app/viewProduct.asp?description=11-126-114&depa=0" target="_new">Also available in Silver</A>. Of course you could always go cheap and <A HREF="http://www.newegg.com/app/viewProduct.asp?description=11-122-003&depa=0" target="_new">Paint this one black</A>
