If the Z68 UD3P is available for the same price as the P67 GD55, the Z68 is a much much better choice. Why are you getting so many fans? Why not just get a more expensive case? i just cant seem to find any features of the z68 usefull, neither the igpu nor the sdd-cache thingy and its like 30euro more. As for the case , i was looking for a quality build, black interior , good air ventilation , and for 44euro i get all this stuff,and i am looking to get the max off the ventilation by applying as many fans as possible,note that the other choices i had who meet these 3 requirements are far more expensive. | ||

You can either save it, get core i5 2300 / 2400 (quad core) instead of the core i3 which is a dual core, or get a Radeon HD5770 or similar instead of the 5670 which would help if you ever decide to purchase a new monitor with a higher resolution. | ||

I want to buy them at a store near my place, mainly because i don't have a paypal set up, and takes so long to do so when im to anxious to have it now. So this is the place ive bought from before and was really good. http://www.canadacomputers.com These are the parts you suggested from the store i believe: G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series DDR3 1333MHz ($63) http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=24_311_312_611&item_id=035766 Gigabyte nVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti Chipset (900MHz) ($210) http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=43_557_559&item_id=040165 Intel Core i5-2400 Quad-Core Socket LGA1155, 3.10Ghz, 6MB L3 Cache, 32nm ($189) http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=4_65&item_id=035529 Gigabyte GA-H67M-D2-B3 Socket 1155 Intel H67 ($85) http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=26_722&item_id=037039 Western Digital Caviar Green (WD20EARS) 2000GB (2TB) ($75) http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=15_210_212&item_id=027811 Cooler Master HAF 912 Mid Tower ATX Case ($55) http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=6_112&item_id=033559 DVD burner ($25) http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=3_61&item_id=029356 Now this store does not have the power supply you suggested, what one would you pick from here: http://www.canadacomputers.com/index.php?cPath=33 Also it is out of stock for the SSD for Ottawa. I can ask them to ship some in maybe, if not would you recommend saving the money until i find a good SSD or where else should i put this money? Once i get the last 1-2 answers i'm off to the stores and going to have some fun =) Thanks so much for your time! | ||

Corsair CX500 V2 for $60 seems like a reasonable option. Power-wise, you could get away with the CX430 V2 easily, but the 430W version (1 PCIe, 3 molex total) may make wiring a little cluttered and is only $10 cheaper. | ||

I can however drive anywhere in ottawa that is no problem, i have room for around a 170$ SSD I just don't know where i can get what. Edit: Can you perhaps look through these, as im going here anyway? http://www.canadacomputers.com/index.php?cPath=15_179 | ||
