it should be ok, is your psu top or bottom mounted? if top then it might be a problem if you get a h70 as it has a bigger radiator.

i have a HAF922: Dimension (W x H x D) Main Unit: 253 x 502 x 563 mm

Unfortunately it's top mounted... I must say though, I love the red and blue lights you have on that, lol, looks really nice And your case is huge compared to mine then D:

you may need to get a new case, the 5850 is like 10 inches long

the blue light is actually the phase lights on my motherboard.

Aww well that sucks... would you recommend any nice cases that are bigger and could house it? Preferably one that lights up since they look pretty

depends, what sort of budget are you on? what have you got left to spend on a case after, these other components??

Well I'm not in rush for a new graphics card or extra cooling, so I'm not needing a case just yet, I can wait a while, so pretty much whatever you can recommend, as long as it isn't TOO expensive, I mean, if it's going to cost a lot I want to see lots of lights and bells and whistles etc. lol

i got mine for £80 worth every penny IMO.

for lights and stuff youll want to get some fans with lights, should get em any way to keep temps down.

im guessing you dont want the same as me

I am just bumping this Thread so that I can ask my own question. I just bought a Laptop PC that is fast but the speakers are so horrendous that I am going to take it back and look into getting something else. I was toying with the idea of a Macbook Pro with the 2720 i7 Chip that allows it to reach 3.3 GHz. Does anyone know how well Dolphin runs on mac? If necessary I could always partition the harddrive and install Windows 7 on it. Or should I forget about the Mac altogether and get something else?
