http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817341023
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820227289 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822136284 $300 for those. If you really want a ponsy 500gig hdd you can get one of the other WD for like $55 so then you're only around $255 or whatever. Case, you choose that yourself on what you specifically need. Same goes for dvd drives which are like $30-40 for a pioneer one. Or see if you can afford to toss in a bluray drive instead or something. They're like anywhere between $60-120. You can get a bluray burner for like $150 which is pretty cool. |

The thermaltake case is a flimsy one. I didnt like that one myself. Might aswell pay the extra $10 and buy the antec one it copied itself off.

And Con I already got the Caviar Green drive at my job it was a steal at $50. It will also last longer because it lowers its spinning speed when the HDD is IDLE. Also, I have the Antec Nine Hundred case already with my current computer, it barely fits the GTX 260 card. I had to finaggle a shitload of cables to get it to fit. The V9 on the other hand will do fine as my friend has it and the card has extra room.
