Oh dear god, that case is horribly overpriced for what it is.

Let me try something better...

There... Now isn't that better?

I know for a fact that the processor is FAR superior.

I can do an AMD based build if you so desire.

appreciated! im looking at something for under 500, ill have to tally yours up. this is much appreciated though friend

id like to find a smaller case if possible, don't care to have a tower next to the TV

Would you like me to do the AMD build?

Also, do you need a Blu-ray/DVD drive?
Because that money could go into a faster processor, which is vital for dolphin.


Too bad on the case, I don't think that can be done for $500.

That lacks a PSU.

^Try that instead.

Also, please answer my other questions.

bluray drive is not needed now but would be nice to have a case to support in the future. would that case work size-wise with a dedicated gpu?

and an AMD build would be fantastic!

NO, that case wouldn't fit most GPUs, you'd need a tower like the one I mentioned earlier.

EDIT: You could put the tower on its side. Just an idea.

I'm looking around for cases similar to the thermaltake size with a PSU....they're small but look big enough to house a dedicated gpu
