Let me sum it up for ya Core i7 920 Gigabyte X58 ud4p 3*2GB of 1333 or 1600 RAM - I like G.skill but most others are fine(get this x2 if you want 12GB) 1Xsmall system drive Like WD 320AAKS or a fast SSD if you can afford it 1X1 TB media drive - I strongly recommend Caviar Black or if not then samsu...

windows 7 is solid, last month i used that o.s. and sony vegas to edit and author a 2-hour dvd, based on avchd video that i shot... no crashing or bsod, and windows 7 has much better support for things like avchd than either winxp or vista has. when i installed windows 7 on the gigabyte mb, i didn'...

Getting a Mac is so 1984. :) I pity people who are fully capable of building a computer..when they turn around and buy a mac. It's retarded to say the least..that is, unless you are super lazy and have 2grand to shell out for something I could build for $700. if that. U know why people are so crazy...

More graphics memory only improves performance when you are pushing the limits of screen space. I dont know how many or the size of his monitor(s). Also, I've never had the need to own a monitor with a 1920 res, but I can see that size benifiting from 1gb over 512..however for 22in (1680) screens o...

YEAH Im totally open to any suggestions on options available to me. The most cost effective route the better. AS for premier... I haven't worked in it alot but I have worked with Sony Vegas and just made simple movies with simple effects. But part of the reason I havent learned more is the machines ...

I think getting a high performance SSD (at least an OCZ Vertex) would contribute to this effect maybe even more so than RAM or CPU. Something in the 30-60GB range should be enough to hold the OS and applications without quite breaking the bank. There is very little advantage in having the fastest p...

Ok after reading all of your posts. I definitely need ram. If you've ever done audio editing and production wave files are huge. Plugins alone take up alot of ram! So having say... 16 wave files open at one time with multiple processing effects on each track gets intense thats why I want a lot of ra...

After my first two builds I told myself that I would never build a system again because of the difficulty of it! My first system sounded like a jet engine and my second was quiet only with the help of this forum and website! But the second system hardly preformed. I've noticed that Sam's Club actual...

Theres a deal right now at Provantage for the Antec Solo case. http://www.provantage.com/antec-solo~7ANTG047.htm 313 In Stock $67.52 $20 Mail-in Rebate Rebate Available through Sunday, December 31, 2006. Although I dont understand the mail in rebate because if its $67.52 minus $20 thats a ridiculous...

I guess it seems the SOLO would be a better choice. Its rated higher on SPCR's charts then both of them and its only $90USD at newegg. Works perfect for me! And its along the same style as the 3300 but better!

Anymore info that anyone has I'm all ears... errr... eyes I guess.

I answered my own question about the size issue i think. From looking at poics on antecs site and neweggs site and comparing specs it seems that the 3300 is smaller. I guess thats why they call it a MicroATX case...

Do you have any experience with the NSK3300 PSU? Is it decent for quietness? Now a little fun story. When I first got the idea of building my own PC and then... attempted building my own computer I didn't know to take things into account such as airflow, cooling, and noise. I ended up purchasing: ht...

Heres both at newegg. Antec NSK3300 EverCase E4252BB Im torn between Antec NSK3300 & EverCase E4252BB. I like the design of the Antec NSK3300 way more. It's modern and you don't have to open a cheap little door for USB and Firewire like the 4252. I wish the 3300 came in a glossy front finish. (Does ...

Damit... Verytime I find a case I like something goes wrong. It onnly has an 80mm fan on the back. WTF! I wish someone would just make the perfect black case! And put the damn USB and firewire ports in the front up top not down on the ground! GRRR... This case doesnt look like it could be modded to ...

Oh... Jabtech has it in US currency $79... Cool... might go with this one....

If anyones got somthin to contribute please let me know!

Thanks.

Hey, thanks for the info everyone. Actually I was a dollar off the shipping for 2 would be $10.01 their shipping calculator says and I live in Wisconsin. How do you run a fan at lower voltages? I have a 3 fan fan controller so I'm assuming when you turn down the speed its also turning down the volta...

I've come across a few different methods and I'm trying to figure out the best as far as noise control. I'm thinking foam would be better such as the Nexus DampTek Noise Absorption Material since it has a fire safety ratings etc. Or something like the MuteMat sound absorption kit? Then I've seen tha...

Ok I've been reading about fans. I need a/some good "as can be" yet "move as much air as can be" fans. Everyone keeps saying the yate loon D12SL-12 is the best choice. Only problem is I am not finding it on any reputable online retailers such as new egg or tiger direct. So... where did you guys purc...

Thanks for your responses. Still trying to decide here... the reviews are helpful though, definitely. Any more insights on these cases or other doable cases please respond! Thanks!

Yeah clean is right... I'm wondering how you did that? Where are all your cables??!?!?!?!?!

lol

I see your IDE cable slips in out of no where and your PSU cables are going who knows where?

How is that working?

I am looking for a good quiet black case (I don't mind dampening myself). Anyone got any experience with the Ever Case E4252BB . It's between the Ever Case, Antec Sonota, Antec 180 or P150 (although I'd hate to use my black drives with it but its such a dope case... ;) )... Anyones thoughts please f...
