I have a $200 budget New Zealand dollars for case+psu and I'm pretty lost (as usual). I checked the power recommendation thread and I'll need minimum
400W 28A. I just want something that looks decent, fits everything in and has good cooling. Heres a good site to compare prices http://www.pricespy.co.nz/ or just add about 30% from newegg to get NZ value.

Heres my system specs if it helps.
E8400
8800 GTS
2x 2GB DDR2-800
GA-EP35-DS3R LGA775
FREEZER 7 PRO
160GB Hard Drive

Here is the case I use, big and has good cooling, never had a problem. $69

Here is the PSU I use, lots of 6 pin slots for all the extras. Cables are wrapped in a mesh to keep things looking good. Never had a issue with it. Got all kinds of crap hooked up to it and still have two 6 pin slots open. There are a little cheaper ones out there.

Here is a cheaper one, same kind just a little less power output.

That should keep you within your budget
