Have you read the reviews on that motherboard(nf7-s) It seemed a group of people had problems with it. Just a note.
Yes indeed I have, a few have had some bad experiances with it, and others have had good experiances with it including Clocker. I am still thinking about going back to the ASUS board to save some money sence 75% of the time I will be using headphones not speakers.

For the PSU, I'd recommend a Fortron 530 Watt.You'll get a free newegg T-shirt when you buy that.Woohoo.
That is a very nice PSU, but im not sure if I can fit it in the budget yet, what I might do is buy a Case/350W PSU for 30 or so dollers, and use the PSU and I wont overclock untill I get a good PSU like Fortron 530 Watt.

and if you really want good audio, dont get the onboard crap, get a real sound card (no matter how good ur onboard is, there is always a reason those things are still made on separate cards
Agan what I might end up doing is go back to the ASUS board sence I just use headphones most of the time anyway, at first the 5.1 sounded AWSOME like I had to have it then i realized I would have to buy good speakers and they wouldn't get much use.

Have you read the reviews?
Here is the first line of the first review ( posted on Newegg's own site, no less...)
"This case is a piece of crap, The lighting effects look cool but I had to RMA this case 3 times due to a faulty PSU. This is not newegg's fault its the manufacturer powmax. I would skip this case an... See complete review>".
Not terribly promising, but do as you see fit.
Clocker certainly won't "hate it", but he reserves the right to gloat down the line.
Yes now that I take the time to read them, they are pretty bad :o I was too buisy looking at the pictures :lol:
