Okay I'm currently building a PC for myself. I have a laptop but need to upgrade and I'm going with a desktop, therefore I need all the accessories etc. It's going to be used mostly for multitasking and graphic editing (photoshop/illustrator etc) and a little bit of gaming. Would this rig do the trick, be worth the cost, and be compatible? Thanks.

>???

are u getting 8 sticks of ram?
 
 
haha yeah i love that antec case but i built a computer for a guy who lives with me and i got that case for him, so i don't want the same one :)
 
and by saying "it has an adapter for 3.5 for the card reader" are you meaning that the lian-li case doesn't because i'm pretty sure it does!
 
That was for the antec, anyway look for other options because paying 140$ on a lian mid tower is crazy considerating there are much better cases for around that price
 
that is a pretty sick rig you got there mines lick that but slow of every part but same ocz gamestrem 700watt psu, its nice and has a big fan : )
 
I used to feel that way but the wireless capabilities have gotten a lot better recently. If you haven't tried either one of those inputs you HAVE to. They are in fact orgasmic. :)
 
Do you have a clue what i could buy for a 167 dollars? :D


it is nice, though it probably only cost >$40 to make that thing
 
yeah that's true. a bottle of coke costs 3 cents to make and they charge 1.25+, imagine how much income THAT is :) it is super expensive but I'm tired of having shitty keyboards and i have the money to spend so i might as well right?
