Asus makes a nice one - you can see it here http://www.baber.com/baber/products/asusb5nlx.htm
this should at least get you started - you do know if you get a true NLX case it will only take an NLX/notebook cdrom?

i don't know if you want to get the asus case since you have to use a laptop cdrom with it. there are other nlx cases that use a full size normal cdrom. hold on a sec while i look it up.........
........okay, found one using yahoo that looks pretty cool. have no experience with it but this is a weblink http://www.a-pro.com/NX8201.htm
what mainboard do you have by the way? there are other places to find nlx cases such as www.pricewatch.com it just depends on how much do you want this mainboard. you can't return it?
Chiptech sells the NLX case. Call them at 1-800-749-2447. Ask for Paul at ext 136 and tell him that ProTech PC said to call. You may need to be a reseller in order to buy, however, it is worth a try. Let me know the results.

Thanks thirdfey - I haven't had too much experience with NLX either but most I had seen used notebook cdroms. I looked for 1 that took regular cdrom also but didn't find what you did.

Thanks to all for your input , the seller agreed to take the board back , it just made no sense to build this thing considering the cost of the components .As usual , this is the best place on the net to get info !!

another reason not to go with nlx for anyone thinking about it trying to get a replacement power supply is nearly impossible i was told i had to wait 4-6 weeks from elan vital the manufacturer to get one try telling a customer that!!!
