If that's your price range, than yeah. It's nice. I'd go for hte P4-800 Delxue model though. It's beautiful, though it does cost a bit more...

Well my girl decided on this case. And we need to find a card that will fit in it.

New Case

The dimensions are Dimensions: 16.2" x 8" x 17.8" (HxWxD)

Now are those the dimensions of the case or the dimensions the card has to be under?

The only true aluminum and by true i mean 100% aluminum cases are the Lian-Li cases, i'm about to get one of those, they are about $100-$300 depending which model and size you take.

Yes, but i highly suggest not getting SiS chipset Motherboards, that's like a generec chipset, if you go with the pentium get the intel chipset.

But yes that mobo will work with that case, they are both ATX.

Yeah, the dimensions for the case are exterior dimensions. it should be fine with your mobo because most ATX boards are of that general size.
