Can you find a micro-atx case you like without a psu for cheaper? Probably not, huh? Just a thought...

[Stavros]

I've been searching for just a mATX case on Newegg, but I think they only sell ones with a cheapo PSU. I have just a few dollars more for this set up, but I'm not sure if I want to go with the X800XT or X850XT. I'm not even sure the X850XT will fit in the X-QPack. Would anyone happen to know if it would?

[BrutalDrew]

The Fortron is cheaper at ewiz and the X800Xl is cheaper at Monarch for $250

[Stavros]

Also, how long will the X800XL last? I don't want to have to get a video card and have to replace it in the near future. I won't have the cash.

You will still be running games at medium-high settings 2 years from now, I think.
