Not a bad rig, though I don't see why thats an 8150, and not 8320/8350. I'm assuming that 8140 is a typo. Nice rig, I like it.

You like rotary engines? Probably not if you're a rally person.

Also, I take it you play DiRT?

At first, I was also thinking to get 8350, then I'm like "I don't want to spend extra 100 bucks" ( I acted a little greedy

)
Reason I chose it, I did not want to go over $450 ,with already having some of the part such as sound card and graphic card and HDD's.
Well, I don't mind playing in different engines, cuz each has its own specs and goodies

I never played DIRT but I have had played "CMR" for a long time. I am also fan of Grand Turismo on Playstation.
Also I have been playing NFS series for a long time , especially the Hot Pursuit is my fav...
In general, I am an FPS game fan, and Battlefield is the only game that i do not change to any other FPS Games!

And how much was the 8320
Great, I'm a Rotary fan, as if you couldn't tell by my avatar.
Its Gran turismo, sorry, had to mention it
NFS is great, I think Underground 2 is my favourite. I do like Hot pursuit II A lot.
I play FPS, not my fav game genre though.

8350 was around $200 and 8140 was $120. I misspelled it you're right but

you did too, "I do liek Hot pursuit II A lot"
it's "like"

do not take it under consideration, cuz I do too

Hot Pursuit II is great too I know.

My dad has a PlayStation 3.
I used to be a console person so I have an N64, Gamecube and xbox. Had a PlayStation 2 but it died. I have the original PlayStation somewhere around here too.
Also have an FC Twin, clone of the NES and SNES.

Good luck, you can't get worse than my case. Management is decent right now, but it has no options for routing behind the mobo tray.

Yeah, with this case I don't have cable management area on the other side of it. But I can use more zip ties lol
