    Is this a good case for my price range?

    Is this a good case for my price range?

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811133184 I'm only willing to go $100 or less for my case, considering the budget I'm presently working with, but this design from Thermaltake seems to be an optimal compromise between style and quality. Plus, the exterior looks like...

    Have I assembled good components for a mid-range gaming PC?

    Would it be a significant downgrade to also go wirth tony's mobo? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130571 It would save me a decent amount, and it's bundled with the same cooler than I was planning on purchasing either way.

    That bundle looks like it would save at least $80 on the OS. I was planning to get Premium anyway.

    Have I assembled good components for a mid-range gaming PC?

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130583 The only issue I'm seeing with this particular mobo is the reviews: some are claiming that it burns out on them fast and is somewhat unreliable. What are your thoughts on that point? Also, would it be OK to not swap out the...

    So, are the other components sound, Danny? RAM, cooler, etc?

    Have I assembled good components for a mid-range gaming PC?

    I'm not necessarily looking to "max out anything". As I specified, I'm more or less a mid-range gamer - I'm not going to be playing Crysis 2 or Battlefield 3. More likely than not, the most demanding game I'll play is Skyrim when it is released. With the current components, I'm already at...

    Have I assembled good components for a mid-range gaming PC?

    Well, I've been to several forums, and every forum has suggested a complete overhaul of the builds that were suggested to me by the last. Therefore, I've reached the point where I'd rather refine what I've got rather than have to start from the very beginning once more...but, considering the...
