why are you spending $120 on a case when you only have a $450 budget? that's more than a quarter of your total budget blown on a fancy case.

| I have to agree to the above post, why are you spending so much on the case? If you're on a low budget, spend on a lower-budget case ...

Suppose your right.
Think I should get better CPU? or more RAM?
Think I should get a decent gfx card

Get a cheaper case, that ones intended for $1000 budgets. A decent $50 case will do it (you can also find the Antec 900 at $50).
The motherboard is fine, although I prefer the Gigabyte version.
For $10 more, I'd get the E7200.
2GB of RAM will be fine for most tasks, especially considering you only have a $450 budget.
Throw in an 8800GT and you'll total around $400.

I have to disagree with all of you.. The 900 is definetly worth the money... My temperatures are kept VERY low with this case... also its roomy, so its good for a first build, and there is a TON of room for future expansion...

Yeah, it's a nice case, but it's going to mean not getting a graphics card.
Shiny case or a graphics card, hmm...
Spending over 1/4 of your budget on a case is just stupid.

caseless does cool down your computer faster, but how about the dust?

Stop giving him these bad ideas...
1) Caseless is terrible i hope you all know that...
2) water = no, i know daaaaaaaaaaaaaamon is joking...
3) Having no case wont make it cool down faster... Having 5-6 fans blowing inside your case taking off the heat... yah that will... My processor stays about 30C... since i have so many fans.

casless does cool down your computer a little bit, 5-6 fans is a bit much.
uses a lot of power.
