Just getting started. Case question

Hey everyone. So I just moved into my first apt (from a dorm room) yesterday and popped her smoking cherry last night. I never thought about being able to grow here until I stumbled on to the PC grow box idea. I am a CompSci major so having an extra tower in my room is no big deal. I looked online at different set ups that are for sale but I decided that I wanted to make my own. I also decided to go with some auto-flowering strains so that I can skip the veg process.

I found this case XCLIO Windtunnel Fully Black Finish on Newegg. I saw a pre-made case online using the same thing.

I also have found the following things to put in it:

Mylar Mirror Sheeting
Lights
Light Sockets

I'm still looking for a way to mount the plug strip, I'm thinking magnets.

Things I could use help with:
1. LST Shelf and how to mount it
2. How to power the fans (an actual PSU would make it super stealthy, but would it take up too much room?)
3. Hydroponics or soil? (Is the bubbling from hydro loud)
4. Ways to help maintain odor?
5. Anything else you want to help with.

Thanks you SO much for any help you can give. This will be my first time growing and first time setting up a PC Box, so I can need all the help I can get.

Peace,
BB

1. LST net? with autos?
2. PSU would be my first choice too, but depending on size, otherwise go get yourself some AC powered PC fans and hook them up to a plug and then the mains
3. Soil. Hydro for advanced growers.
4. Im thinking about this one at the moment myself, theres plenty of options but each one seems to have its own problems - carbon filter, having to buy a bigger fan or ona gel, the smell of it all over the place
5. I will help with coming around to your apartment and smoking some of your stuff
 
Hey man, thanks for your reply. That case has some nice fans on it, are you saying replace those? Or? and yeah I mean a little bit of smell when I take the door off is obviously fine, just can't be a constant thing. and if you live near texas you are welcome to it sir.

thanks again for your help!
