My last decision was about the case, I don't need something, epic fancy looking but something with a good cooling. So whatcha think?

Way too expensive for me.

If you like it, go with that one.

I have a Cooler Master Centurion 5 mk II.

The case I bought is the same as the one shown in the first picture.

It doesn't actually come with the extra fans, just mounting places for them.

I fitted two extra fans on the side panel, for a total of four.

It keeps things cool pretty well so far, but it hasn't been run through the heat of summer yet.

Now all you need is a decent PSU, something around the 600-700 watt area should be more than enough, but remember it's better to have too much power than not enough.

look at all the new TOYS!

I'm *so* jelly right now.

Sapphire is great brand for Radeon cards, I've never had one go bust on me.

I actually have my previous card packed away as a backup and my current card is a Radeon 5770.

Looking at those new bits makes me think it might be time for a video card upgrade. :D

Nice! But I would have waited for the Bulldozer's release. That is what I am doing:)

I could have bought six core for around the same price, but why. I will have no usage for that, so will programs in next 3-4 years not even talking about 16 core xD

Thanks for the positive comments, can't wait to assemble it, thou I gave a promise to do it next weekend so I won't be distracted from school this week.
