Check This Out Post Your Gaming Rig!

When I sought out a case, this is only my 3rd build. The antec nine was the best there was at the time with the huge top side fan, the dual fans in the front and the side panel with fan and window. Maybe the only one that didnt look like a spaceship, jetpack or helmet. Does better than average with overclocking on air alone.

Eh, not to start a forum war (and I am by no means a fanboy of either company) but for it's price and it's market the new AMD Phenom II is right about where it should be. It beats out the Q6600 and is equal +-1-2% with the Q9550.

AMD has finally broken into the 45nm, and I forsee good things coming for the consumer now that AMD has broken out of its rut and actually decided to offer some competition.
 
I don't want to sound like a hater but Alienware makes some horrendous cases. Also, self built PCs > * :D

i dont know i kinda like it. But i would never buy a prebuilt from their website cause you can save so much money building your own.

Well, everyone has their preferences.I could care less for the looks of the case, as long as it is functional and simple but what matters most is the parts inside. Same goes for my preference in cars. Mine looks simple and clean in the outside but the heart and brains of the car is what makes it go and I mean it goes. ;)
