OK. So I've got 1,300 to 1,350. Can you help me config a rig for mostly gaming/schoolwork? My only requirements are:
I'd like at least 320GB of storage, preferably 500GB. Vista Premium home edition. The price needs to include a mouse/keyboard. If possible, I'd like a wifi receiver in the computer. Other than that, not much. Any help is greatly appreciated. |

For $70 less you can go with the Antec 900 case which is also nice and a couple dollars less will buy you a better video card in the nVidia 8800GT 512MB. The case is a personal choice, but IMO, the graphics card upgrade is just a smart move.

the reason I choose HAF widdlecat is because of the fans and all vents that come with it, because of the HAF we can keep the cooling at stage2 yet pretty much enjoy stage 3 cooling. antech does not have all the fans of HAF and vents of HAF, I think HAF will stay cooler then antec.
the grahic card upgrade would be nice. |
