Keep in mind that if you build it yourself you can get it even cheaper AND better.

Post by: VoX on May 19, 2008, 07:16:00 AM: Build it your self it will save a lot of money. Try to look for good local Computer Parts stores as they are pretty cheap for parts. In Australia we have a place called MSY and they sell Quad-Core/Nvidia 9800 SLI and 4 GB for under $1000

Post by: Tec_ on May 19, 2008, 08:14:35 AM: ive never been a fan of that case, or any case with a door for that matter. when ever ive seen this case in the store the window always seemed kinda cheesy. felt like if i ran a screw in to it to hold the fan on it would crack.

I like having a door on my case, maily because it hides the ugly Drives but also because it allows me to run wiring into the door for switches, mainly for fan speeds controls and neon lighting amounts
