Antec Nine Hundred Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
$119.99 -40.00 Mail in Rebate
I really like this case. One of only a handfull that work for my personal tastes. Tons of 120MM fans, clear side, and the PS at the bottom. IDK why I like that idea but I just do. Hope it will fit this and future V/C's though??

Total from NEWEGG .com is $1,126.81 shipped. 126.81 OVER what I really wanted to spend, But I can prolly swing it because of the case. $-90 with Mail in Rebates, but who knows how long that will take to get put back in the bank lol. I am sure I could switch a few things around and get into a Phenom X4, but am still uncertain if that is going to be worth it right now or not? Most if not all of the AMD MB's are using the ATI crossfire AMD chipsets, not much really geared towards nvidia stuff right now or from what I can see/read the next 3 months.

So what would you change and why PLEASE?? THX
