1. Your Budget: up to $2,500 if it's worth it, but i prefer closer to $2,000

2. Expectations: I hope this computer can play the latest games at high quality for at least a year without upgrades.

3. Usage: Games. Graphics intensive games like Shogun 2, city building sims, etc.

4. Special Needs: I don't know anything about overclocking.  I don't want to sacrifice realiability too much, but i like performance (obviously).

I added a few things (cooling mainly) to the Level 4: Ultimate Enix, but i don't know if it's even necessary.

Here's the ticket #: 505987


You input is highly appreciated, thanks for looking.

why would you need an Enix...? >.>. HAF series ftw. I'm interested to see what'll happen if DS gets the RV03 though.

The Enix is a great chassis if that's your style.

Because maybe he likes it?

case is all about preference. Get what you want. I would rather pay $1000 for a  Enix case than have 500 HAF' cases for free.  better value. Big%20Smile
