Hey Darkmat what about these, tell me what you think?? What's your budget?? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146029 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129043 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811133154 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811144199
Those look pretty good my price range is no more then 200 dollars. I was thinking about Cooler Master 932 haf
i would say the antec 1200 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129043&Tpk=antec twelve hundred Cooler Master 932 HAF http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119160 COOLER MASTER Stacker 830 Evolution http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119122 any of those.personally i would chose the antec 1200 over the HAF, but the HAF looks very nice.
That Coolermaster 830 is sweet indeed, i was going to list it but he mentioned he didn't want to pay more then 200 dollars... I love that Coolermaster though, hey dragnandy did you happen to take a look at the stacker 830 CX limited edition with the smoke flames? It's only 1,000 dollars!!lol It's nice as hell but i don't have those type of funds, all i can say is WOW!!! http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119175
Soldam cases are still the best in my opinion, they will make you drool.. Check out some of these cases.. http://forums.vr-zone.com/showthread.php?t=202744
Wow that Soldam case seems sweet but more then likely way out of my price range. The same with the special edition 830 stacker. I do like the look of the Antec case might be able to squeeze that one by the wife. Just going to read the reviews and get either the 932 or the antec thanks everyone
You already have that power supply? Because just so you know, even if you use an overclocked Quad core processor your system will be using around 250 watts at maximum load. A 350W PSU could run your system, not that I would do it. The Enermax Galaxy is a ridiculous power supply, as you don't need 1KW of power unless you use at least three graphics cards and two CPUs, what's more the Enermax Galaxy 1000 is one of the units that failed the 'real kilowatt' tests, i.e. it can't actually provide as much power as it says it can. I would never recommend the Galaxy 1000 to anyone, partly because in addition to all the above, it is one of the loudest PSUs ever made.
Yeah Sam the psu fried only after 8 months my first bad experience with enermax good thing newegg will replace it up to a year and 3 years from entermax. If i could go back and do it again i would get a corsair. Hindsite is 20/20
