i do understand that, but building a custom computer yourself is just so much cheaper.

It does appear that all the parts would work together.

What is your budget and the cost of these parts?.   

Not sure what you're using the pc for.     The cpu and video catd are entry level, meaning gaming on a 19" monitor at 800x600 would be decent in my opinion.

I would consider reducing the added fans for the CM912 to just one more on side or front for example and drop the fan control. The added $$ would allow you to step up to the gtx660, much better gaming if thats the goal.   I would rather have performance over eye candy.

You could also drop the H100 cooler to the stock cooler or A50, H80 etc.   Without overclocking its all you need.   The saved $$ might allow the i5- 3450, 3570 etc.

Have you checked out the Marauder pcs under Special Ops?       Alot of us have built our own in the past because you can save 10-20% but for some of us it got old and we wanted someone else with a great reputation to fall back on.

Good luck either way and let us know how it goes.

I'm sorry but I'll have to close this thread as we would like to keep the forums open for helpful advice for users interested in a Digital Storm PC.
