Please take a look at this

I mean you're not gonna find (or with some difficulty) a good case to house all your stuff for $40
 
O :mad:
Um So WHat kind of case do u think I should be getting ???
Mid-Tower Obviously right ?
I was looking at Computer Cases but I couldn't find any Good ones...I know it sounds like I'm making this up, but I was actually looking at cases on Newegg.com but There was Nothing that I'd like...
I'd want the Side Panel Window and some cool "Gaming" look (Sum LEDS)...
If You could post some of you suggestions for that ???
That'd be the last thing- I Promise :rolleyes: :o

I don't see any problem with it. As for the quality, what do you mean? There is not much to grade a case on quality-wise. You could look at air circulation, but nothing would be told unless you buy it and test it. As for structural integrity, it is fine.

If that is really what you want, then you have $80 to spend on a power supply. Look at waht Praetor has told you and find one.

edit: That would not house the 4 80mm fans you had originally specified. You need to make up your mind on what you really want for a case and a power supply.

I dont do cases. And when I do they are ~$150 cases (any less its generally crap, any more its overpriced -- if it's not overpriced then you wouldnt need to ask for case-advice). Sub-150 cases dont affect performance and so I dont bother with them.

Just looking at your machine, id scrap the 3700 in favor of the 3500 and get a better motherboard.
 
Y would I be goin from 3700+ to 3500+
So you guys are saying that there isn't that much difference between these two ???
 
Do you think that the PowerColor is Better than the XFX I got in my setup ???
Shrug .. dont think you have the luxury of 'better' at this point. I chose it cuz its got (arguably) the best value/dollar ratio for cards in its class.

Brand really doesn't matter.
Brand isnt the only difference you know

General rule of "if you have to ask, you prolly wont notice the difference" applies here. The only difference between them is the 3700 has an extra 512K L2.
 
I was just looking at the clock speeds and XFX has better speeds....The only good thing about that Powercolor is the Pipelines...no ???

ABout those cases- They're not bad- I'm seriously considering buying the blue one, But don't like the fact that they don't have any LEDS on the front panel....But otherwise- Not bad, THX
If I'd be buyin this case I'd have enough money to keep the 3700+ lol
 
What do you mean? I was talking under the assumption that the cards are identical aside from the brand, which isn't likely.
Looking at post one, Luke2 spec'd a XFX 6800GS. I spec'd a Powercolor X800XL.

But don't like the fact that they don't have any LEDS on the front panel....
Not trying to tell you what to do (cuz frankly, it's your case really) ... but shouldnt the bling come AFTER the performance? :)
 
Yea you're completely right...That was dumb from me...
So Finally- I think I'm done with "virtually" building ...?
II'd keep that 3700
That XFX 6800GS
And I'll take the blue case...
Any last suggestions ?
