Well i read some reviews from both antec 1200 and cooler master sniper and...
the antec 1200 has plenty of room inside it BUT for what? CM sniper uses space just perfectly not too tight but not too loose.
it is hard to decide which :really:
and also the CM sniper runs cooler than the 1200 believe it or not

Nice. I couldn't find a case I was happy with when I added the new stuff so I stuck with my iCute. Everything fits in fine though (despite having to use all sorts of odd screws to hold the extra HDs in) and there's somehow more empty space now than there was before. :really:

Personally, I would say to avoid an ASUS made graphcis card if you can, it will probably still do the job, however brands such as XFX, EVGA, Gainward, BFG are much more commonly known as the better performance cards.

Usually the only thing which differs between the brands is the sticker (and ofc stuff like cables and games which you get when you buy the card.)

But on that Asus card the sticker isn't the only difference.. ^^

Buy Corsair HX520.
Corsair makes very good PSU's, infact best PSU's on the market..
The HX520 outperforms some 650w PSU's.

It maybe costs a tiny bit more than that chieftec, but it's worth it imo since the PSU is a so important component on a PC.
Also the HX520 is modular, i don't know if the chieftec is that. So you get less cables laying around in the case.
