Yes they're good for overclocking/medium gaming, but don't purchase until after July 22nd when Intel cuts processor prices. That way you can save some cash by waiting a few weeks.

I dont want to wait a few weeks I have been without a desktop computer for a few months now and I am sick of using a laptop computer that is not good for gaming. As for the videocard I should be able to play FEAR and other DX9 games maxed out at 1680x1050 with at least 20 FPS right?
 
With the x1950 Pro, it will be close. It depends what you deem as maxxed out. Graphics cards in general take a big hit with high AA.

I saw some benchmarks and I might have to turn down a few things but that is ok it still looks great when I was using my 7600GT.
 
I think that card will be fine, with my x800xl i can play fear maxed with max aa..without any lag i can see

btw, do you already have an OS?
 
It comes with two 80mm fans, you could put a 120mm in the back, instead of them substituting an 80mm. You can put in two 80mm fans and one 120mm.

I would trash the PSU that comes with it or save it as a back-up. The PSU's that come with cases, in the end, are in the trash.

Ok cool so now I have to get some good fans that move a lot of air.

I will be using a Hipro 600 Watt dual rails 20@ on each rail. Ill save that powersupply maybe for putting together my last build to sell on ebay.
 
I just bought my computer I already have a case so I decided no to get one and live with the one I got.
