Why don't you spent $20 more and get the full tower....http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4146085&CatId=32

Whatever works for you, but I would go for the bigger one for just 20 bucks more unless you really can't afford it. :)

It's $40 more, at Newegg anyway.

The truth is, the 932 is a MASSIVE case. It's too big actually. If you don't have an E-ATX board, you simply don't need a case that big.

If the 922 had been out when I bought my 932, I would have gotten it. Just my opinion.
 
Yeah, that would be a really nice system. The case is really just a personal preference. Some people don't like having a large case...I on the other hand agree that if you can spend just a couple more bucks, i'd go for the larger case. More air flow and additional room for expansion if you choose to do so. That being said, most mid towers do provide you with enough space for a typical computer users needs.

Only recommendation I've got is to think about the RAM. You'd wanna make sure it's solid, and I've always liked the bigger names like Kingston / Corsair / Patriot etc. Here is a link about Geil - http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/41756-30-geil-memory-good

Amazon has a lot of the components you want, and if you choose to, you can even get them "used" but in great condition if you don't mind used parts and feel like saving a couple bucks... Buying used is not for everyone, and honestly, for the system you're building, I wouldn't recommend it, cause I like warranties on anything I buy. But it's a nice option if you wanna try to get parts cheaper...

What you say about this graph. : Palit Nvidia GeForce GTX260 Sonic 216 SP, 896MB/448bit DDR3, DVI, HDMI, PCI Express 2.0 (DNXGFGTX260GS896B448HDMI)
Is it good?

And, is motherboard and powering compatible with 922 ? Maybe I'll change my mind and decide for 932

Can you suggest me another memory, because I can't find that one on market in my country?

Maybe I'm boring, but I realy need your help. Thanks
 
GTX260 - Is it good?
Yeah, the GTX260 has some great reviews. The only complaint I've seen from people is that it's a big card. But if you have a big tower, then you won't have any problems putting it in there. Graphics run well at high - very high resolution, great for game play.

Graphics Card - GTX260

Are Motherboard / Tower / PSU all compatible?
Yes, they are all ATX and will work perfectly with eachother...You can get either the 922 or 932, it's up to you. About $40 more for the 932, but again, you'll have space if you need it in the future instead of purchasing the 922 and regretting it later. Either way, they are both nice towers.

Cooler Master 922 / 932 Towers

Here are some good brands for your RAM. Hopefully they are available to you!

Corsair
Kingston
Patriot
Crucial
 
Read the first few reviews under the i7 processor. It will help you to see the capabilities of i7 when it comes to overclocking.

Also, although the stock fan is good, an aftermarket cooling source is recommended for overclocking. Check Cooler Master V8.

Here is some more information on overclocking your system, but if you want to go crazy, please keep in mind you should probably go to water cooling systems. Here is a chart showing performance of water blocks for the i7
 
Just finished building!! I made some changes:
