Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Well they didn't have the 230T in stock when I went, or the Haswell processor I wanted. I did end up with a Haswell and the 300R case. Will post pictures after build.
What about the 300R it has a 140mm intake fan in front of the hard drives, a rear fan, and mounts for top and side fans as well.

And this motherboard:
MSI H87-G43 $99.00
Because I can get this:
Intel Core i5-4430 3.0GHz...
What makes the 230T better at cooling? The 200R has more fan mounts than the 230T. I can pick up a couple of extra fans if that is all it is. I like the way it looks a lot more than the 230T.
Also, what do you think of this case... I found one for sale on Craigslist for $40...

Open to any suggestions. $950 is the max I can squeeze my budget to, so no SSD at this time. Most likely will pick up an SSD and another 8GB of RAM in a month or so.
