Please give me some suggestions and opinions. Thank You! :)
 
I would suggest a 6950/6970 GPU, or if you can afford it, a GTX570.

otherwise, do you need Windows. or the rest of the system?
 
Id change the PSU to one of these. $64.99 MIR.

CORSAIR Builder Series CX600 V2 600W ATX12V v2.3 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC Power Supply

Or

CORSAIR Enthusiast Series TX650 V2 650W ATX12V v2.31/ EPS12V v2.92 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Active PFC High Performance Power Supply
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...9020&cm_re=CORSAIR_650-_-17-139-020-_-Product

Not sure how good the airflow would be on that case you choosen,Id go for something like this instead.

Reall bad Cable management.
I would suggest a CM 690.

+1 on the PSU.

And get 1600MHz memory for just a couple of bucks more.

I went by the budget that he set on the other case in his list ~$50 (Assuming he means ($) as OP did not state currency.

The cheapest CM690 is $69.99 after mail in rebate + $11.99 shipping. on newegg.

The CM690 is a very good case though op if you can stretch that far. :)

Sorry my bad I got confused between the pricing of the CM 690 and the HAF 912.I remembered one of them was $50.
I meant to suggest the HAF 912.

Ok. but seem like it does not have crossfire certification, so will my graphic card be compatible with this PSU?
