Build Question

I am not sure about the 300 antec but likely won't fit in a mid size case, and/or it would be so limiting in space for future upgrades.

Moreover what kinda of antec case? the tower or the minuet? There's a big difference a matx like the latter won't fit that mb let alone gpu card.

As for an atx antec 300 tower it would fit.

What's your budget?

bump for advice

Don't get me wrong, I like my Antec 300 but it's not as roomy as I'd like. The Cooler Master 590 or 690 are also cases with awesome airflow.

What's your budget?

no budget at the moment, but i dont want to blow my wallet if you know what i mean, i really dont want to go with the cooler master, id like to stick with a company that i know i can get a good product from, something simple in a case as well, thats why i chose the antec 300, if i can keep the temps down for it. Also, this is a design computer for a friend, so i doubt there will be alot of games involved.

so with that thought, will the antec 300 work ok??? i do plan on putting the hard drive fans in it

Cooler Master makes solid cases. The Cooler Master 590 and 690 are both cases with high-end airflow at good prices. They're also bigger than the Antec 300.

For a power supply, might I suggest Corsair? Have a look on Newegg. The Corsair power supplies are solid.

Both of these are about the same price as the one you linked earier

I like the 2nd one most.

the cooler master 590 looks like a good case for the price, i might go that route, but will this power fit in it??

also, will it be enough to run a 500 watt graphics card, im also running a 95 watt CPU with 8 gigs of ram, id think not becaus the power supply is 700 watts, and no upgrade
