Toss the power supply that came with the case and get a branded one. The CM 690 is a mid tower case.

haha i no right, since im only young mum dosent like to buy stuff over the internet tho lol,

Since you got till after the new year talk her into Newegg/TigerDirect or Zipzoomfly, they are all good places to order from. Ordered from them for years and never had a problem. Well other then like pulling teeth getting a rebate from TigerDirect:D

+1, I'm sure every single person on this forum will vouch for Newegg, TD, and ZipZoomFly ;)
 
alright ill have a word to her, what payment do you use, credit card ?? or what ?

How can I pay for my Newegg purchase?

* Visa
* MasterCard
* Discover Network
* American Express
* Newegg Preferred Account
* Bill Me Later
* PayPal
* Newegg Gift Card
* Pre-paid Company Check, Personal Check, Cashier's Check or Money Order (Note: All Prepaid Orders, including Cashier's Checks, take longer to process because they must first be cleared with the bank)

My parents use PayPal to purchase items, but that's just a personal preference.
 
alright, since mums buying over newegg now im reconsidering the intel one, because it was worked out too expensive at the shop. and iv been reading that the i5 would be better than the privious one i was looking at. also says you would need a case, what do you recomend

Intel Core i5-750 Lynnfield 2.66GHz $199.99

GIGABYTE GA-P55A-UD3 LGA 1156 $134.99

OCZ Gold 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1600 $114.99
($84.99 after Rebate)

CORSAIR CMPSU-650TX $98.99
($88.99 Rebate)

HIS Radeon HD 3850 512MB $69.99...(HIS Radeon HD 4670 1GB $79.99) would this be better for the little extra money

Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 ST3500418AS 500GB $49.99
