(Unfortunately couldnt get any picture to work. Tried everythin. Ive got an URL to the pic, pasted every possible imageshack link, nothing. Oh well.)

The case will host a Athlon 64 x2 5600+
and
8800GTS 640meg

Any information would be appriciated, such as airflow, cooling, sound etc.

you should be fine. or else why would HP manufacture the case if it is faulty? (i do agree mistakes happen though)
if you have any problems just buy a sweet case from newegg

post with the "http://" part clipped off and you'll be ok.

if its a leased computer, i'm sure you probably aren't allowed to just swap out the case. A case doesn't make a difference for the performace of a computer. Its just a shell. Maybe if it doesn't have enough air flow, that could be a problem... but thats not necessarily a case problem, but a lack of fans or placement problem...

Nope nothing i do makes the post want to keep a link to a picture...

I got an URL directly to the picture(just the picture). I downloaded the picture and hosted it on image shack, tried posting all the links created directly into the post. Used the "createlink" both with http// and without. Nothing.

Thanks for the answers though.
