Also note that the IC7 Max3 has an OTES system which works (ideally) if the case supports it. If you dont want/need the OTES, the IC7 Max2 is the same board just without the OTES
- You might consider either more memory or faster memory

Not to sound stupid. what is OTES? Man I thought I knew a little about computers...then I came here!
Guys basically here I am looking to build a decent computer for every day "stuff" no gaming or that stuff. But don't want a cookie cutter compaq POS I dont want to spend a ton either.
And what do I look for to know if the case will support the mobo? Sorry fot the lamo questions..
