I was able to keep it under $1200 however. http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/PublicWishDetail.aspx?WishListNumber=19572248 (Note, your combo would shave 50 dollars off of this.) Link to comment

I honestly suggest a case with vent filters, it keeps you from having to do nearly as much maintenance, but Antec 900 is a good deal, so that'd be $905 total, only good place to save money is buying a cheaper version of your GPU or getting a cheaper card entirely. Also investing in a CPU heatsink is a good idea. Also Edited July 5, 2010 by PotshotPolka Link to comment

Also drac make sure you don't buy that mobo you still have listed, its for i7s. Edited July 5, 2010 by PotshotPolka Link to comment
