Hi Jacques,
You should be able to use any case that fits your motherboard. Your
motherboard is probably an ATX mobo, but you need to double check. An ATX
motherboard will have a connection for the power push button from the case
to connect to. Most power supplies these days will be P4 ready, but those
will still work, you just won't use the extra 4 pin Molex Connector that
they have.
For a dual P3, you would want at least a 300W supply.
