GHOSTN asus is good imho as is the corsair memory. 320mb graphics is enough for the next few years unless your into games or anything that needs high end graphic cards.

I have 450W power supply running 7 HDD's DVD-DL burner, DVD reader, it seems to do the job ok.

Do take into consideration the cooling the case provides, if you have a small office like mine with little air circulation then get something with better cooling than you think you might require.

And as Pete says if you don't like a big case staring at you put it under the desk and cover it's eyes:-)

And as long as it's not made of laminated tinfoil.

So just get anything Mid ATX tower should be fine, then it's just up to what kind of case you like the look of...

I'd recommend enermax PSU or raidmax seems OK for cheap, had a thermaltake, it was good but for the watt rating the amps were a little low, remember it's amps not watts you need to take into account

warning given for now, take it back a notch Pedal.
As for the rest of you, don't get roped into discussions like this, they only escalate.

Also, I'd like to see you change your avatar/sig, pedal. It's in poor taste and some people might get offended by it.

567674 2007-07-12 22:26:00 I'm locking this thread. GHOSTN you have plenty of help, go make some decisions. PedalSlammer, take a break from PF1. Everyone else stop sticking your noses in and creating more trouble.

I've also deleted all comments not related to the original posters question.
