100$ for a screen?! You can't get anything for that in Norway.. :(
Anyway.. Check if your items can fit in a Fractal Design Define XL. :)
One more thing! Get a SSD for your OS. :D

Im Actually pushing it a bit on the budget :(
anything to bring it down without bringing the performance down much would be great? any ideas?

Looks good!!
The caviar black is really fast. not far off my vertex.
The only thing i dont like about it is it's loud and can be annoying.
would recommend it though for performance!!:good:

Yh (y)
I need to try and bring down the price a bit though :/ if it's possible without downing the performance much :/
 
ive got the os sorted so thats not a problem.
do you see anything that can be changed for something cheaper but similar in performance?
 
It's all right. It's got good airflow and plenty of spots for fans, but not a lot of options for cable management at all. If you want sub-£50 cases, I'd look at these:

NZXT Beta EVO- great buy at £35
http://www.scan.co.uk/products/nzxt-beta-evo-black-mid-tower-case-w-o-psu

XClio Nighthawk Extreme- Mobo tray from the NZXT Gamma, but with a better fan configuration and some sort of gizmo on top.
http://www.scan.co.uk/products/xcli...-tower-case-black-10-front-bays-18cm-side-fan

CM Centurion 5 II and Gladiator 600- More or less cheaper versions of the Storm Scout
Centurion 5 II- http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/coolermaster-centution-5-ii-black-mid-tower-case-w-o-psu
Gladiator 600- http://www.scan.co.uk/products/coolermaster-gladiator-600-black-mid-tower-case-w-o-psu

Casecom 9188, 6988, and 6788 (all of them are similar to the NZXT Gamma/Rosewill Challenger)
9188- http://www.ebuyer.com/product/205157
6988- http://www.ebuyer.com/product/205154
6788- http://www.ebuyer.com/product/172779 (identical to the Challenger)



However, If you can afford the extra dough, I think the HAF 912+ would be the best for quality/price:
