2 System Case Fans
Artic Silver Thermal Compound

That toal is 609.53. This includes the motherboard,processor,memory,cpu fan,powersupply, and thermaltake right? ust making sure im reading it right. He already has a burner,dvd player, soundcard,hard drive,and ethernet card he wants to use for the system. I need to find a good case for this system to. Am I forgeting anything and is this a pretty good system for under $1000?
-

-
Also missing a monitor too <_<
-
My bad. He already has a video card and monitor to.Here are the motherboard specs.
Am I forgetting anything? What case would be good for this system?
-
cabling if any is needed? maybe go with some rounded cables, they help airflow and alot easyer to keep wiring tidy with them aswell.
-
What cabling do you think ill need? I am going to salvage parts and stuff from there older computer? Can I use those ones? The power supply comes with wires and hard drives come with wires.
-
most mobo usually come with a ide and fdd cable, and youll have ones from the old system aswell, but they are pretty cheap of ebuyer, only about £2
-
Ok sweet. Im going to find the rest of the parts I need then ill come back on here and ask you if all the parts will work together and what not.
-
What would be a good case for this motherboard. I want the motherboard and everything else to fit in the case without having to drill holes and stuff? Thanks

Would This case be good and work with the motherboard I am getting?
