• 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.

And I need some help on chossing Case and case fan, I am going to get student discount on window OS. Any recommendation on Monitor? I already have Keyboard and Mouse.
 
I would suggest something like a Fractal Define S which is a great case for $60dlls or a NZXT S340 for $75dlls. Case fans well thats more on personal taste and build color but Corsair AF and SP fans are great and those colored rings have always been my favorite.
