Do you want to use Socket 775 (if Intel) which are being slowly phased out and more than likely not going to be available soon - this is in case of failures. These boards are becoming less and less choices to what they used to have, and their prices are lower than the Newer boards. 2>Do you want Quality parts ? Example you can buy a El Cheap PSU or a More expensive good quality one of the same wattage -- Which one would you expect to last longer and not give trouble ? Heres an example: If I look at one of my suppliers sites: Black mid tower ATX case with 320W PSU (Max power), ext:5.25"x4 / 3.5"x1, int: 3.5" x5, front audio and USB My buy price -- lets say I would get change from $45.00 ;) The case is a Basic case, but is fine for day to day usage BUT how good do you think the 320W PSU actually is ? Lets say It wouldn't be staying in the PC, a better Corsair will be installed.	wainuitech (129)

The one I quoted for today and got signed off, is very similar to Bottom one here at Playtech (www.playtech.co.nz) -- Slightly different components and Case (but cheaper overall price as well). I told the guy he didn't need that much grunt to do what he wanted, he does the odd bit of light gaming, but that's what he wanted, I had a list of parts, and prices, chopped and changes components and he selected what he wanted.	wainuitech (129)
