    trying to buy a SLI-based system for 2k

    I am looking into buying a PSU and was considering an Antec P180B case. I am a noob so I don't get why you are telling him to get something different. Is it a bad fit in that case, some other reason? I appreciate the help! :)

    Antec TRUEPOWERII TPII-550 550W Power Supply

    Thanks for the input guys. I know this isn't the mobo forum, but the reason for my choice of MB is that I want something that is high end now so that I won't have to upgrade. When I build this rig I will have it for 3 years. I will eventually get another video card or something like that, but...

    Oooo, P180 in black, not just an SPCR specialty anymore

    Do these cases go down in price or they stay at the same range over an extended period of time. I am building in a month and the sticker shock of new parts and a case is bothering me. I guess if I buy the case now it doesnt seem like I am spening a ton in a month. Is that weird that I am...

    Title: *Official* - AsusTek A8N32-SLI Deluxe thread

    Might be a stupid question, but are you guys still using fans even though it has the Quiet Cool Technology. Is it safer to have a fan as well, or is it that good that it doesnt need one. Thanks!
