    3+ year old Alienware case + New Mobo = BAD?

    I know I should upgrade my case but I like it because it's got a lot of space.

    $220 BFG Ageia Physix AR *Free Shipping*

    http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/ProductDetail.jsp?ProductCode=326042 Looks like the prices are starting to come down on these. Mind you BFG is the low quality version compared to Asus version but there isn't any performance differences it's pretty much just the heatsink.

    I did a search on tigerdirect.com and right now they are selling Blu Ray disc for 18 dollars. (1 per pack not a spindle) then I see this and I am confused.
