Also check the comparisons on Kakaku (sorry Japanese only for now, but
you should still be able to find what you need):

Last week, I bought a really nice and very slim Windy case from Two Top
for my sister. It came with a pre-installed Intel motherboard that has
onboard sound and video. Also has tv out and firewire. Unfortunately, I
dont know of a similar motherboard that supports AMD processors.

The case+motherboard cost almost 50,000yen, but I still had to buy and
install the RAM, hard drive, CPU and CDRW seperately. You can probably
find a shop that does that for you and sells everything together.

RedHat 7.3 installed without trouble and I havent seen any other
problems yet, though Quake3 doesnt perform very well and Seti@example.com is
slower on this Celeron 1.4GHz than my Athlon 900MHz.
