Re: I feel like i'm missing something.
You need a power supply. The ones that come with the case wont
cut it. You need something like this.. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817139006 Your paying $54.00 for the case, and the psu, so ask yourself, how good can this power supply be, the answer not very.

Re: I feel like i'm missing something.
Dont waste your money, roll the dice on the psu that comes with the
case. Dont be suprised when the pc wont boot., or worse yet fries your board before the psu pops. Good luck with that.
