So i originally planned to get the antec sonata iii with 500W psu, but i was told by my friend that it is not the way to go and i will run into heating issues with it if i overclock. So im looking for suggestions that will give me a nice computer case (i was suggested to go mid tower and avoid mini), with a 500W psu, and has 120mm holes for fans.
specs of what would be in the computer
Gigabyte GA-EP45 DS3R
Intel Q6600
9600 GT (any brand)
seagate 500GB harddrive 7200.11
a cheap dvd optical drive
2 120mm fans front and rear (or jsut front if case includes rear)
stock cpu cooler
OCZ 4gb PC2-6500 ram
my overclocking plan: 3.0 ghz at highest, aiming for low 2.8ghz
so with that said, i just need a nice cheaply case and PSU, preferably under 130$ together
*NOTE* must be canadian price and sells to canada(ie. no newegg)
I would recommend going with a quality power supply.. i have blown up two cheap power supplies and now ive learned not to use them again.
If your looking for a good computer store in canada go to Canada Computers.... their prices are great and they provide satisfactory service.
As for a case thermaltake makes some really nice ones.... and for a PSU... PC power and cooling, Corsair, and termaltake are good manufactures all sold by Canada Computers.
well i am leaning towards 4850, but ill prob wait for a rebate to pop up at time of purchase (which is in like 2 weeks) then ill get the 4850... and i went with the corsair 550W psu, i decided that the thermaltake wing rs 100 will suffice for me (101 basically same thing but different looks)
