Yes, for me at least. EDIT: I just received an order saying that mine shipped.

Updated one more time, after reading some reviews I went with the DFI motherboard. As far as the case goes, I chose that one because pretty much everything I've read about it has been complimentary and I liked the style. Price was not the defining factor. I also saw a review that used a...
