Just as a caution the power supply is most likely junk. Built a system for my daughter using a Raidmax Scorpio case with 420w supply and it didn't last one WoW gaming session with a 9600GT before it went pop.
Maybe it's a good case, but do not use the Raidmax power supply included with it because a bad PSU is not only more likely to fail, but it's also more likely to damage your computer if it does.
I have nothing against cheap power supplies themselves and have never spent more than $20 on one (highest price was $15, another $5 was for replacement capacitors to make it last forever)

Good advice. I took mine out as 450 PSU was very light and felt flimsy.
Replaced with awesome Antec Basiq BP550 Plus - Modular Power Supply from Fry's for $29.99 2 weeks ago. Very nice and hefty PSU by the way and wish I bought 2 as price at Newegg is $65.
Yes I kept copies but 5 for 5 I've had to resend it with nothing wrong, it just gets magically approved once I call.

Purchased a Raidmax PSU and Case from Newegg and right now the front fan stopped working and the PSU after the second boot. Newegg refunded me for the PSU + Shipping cost and got my rebate from Raidmax after 9 months. Raidmax case not too bad but stay away from the PSU.
