New pc advice

[asg102]

What will computer be used for mostly:
-Graphic design
-Web design
-Mild 3D
-Video editing
-Audio editing
-Mild Gaming I mostly only play counter-strike and games that sponsors send out for me to test
-Run multipule gaming servers at LAN

I also plan to overclock it a little.

Which case would you think is better and if I got the Cavalier would the 350 watt power supply be sufficient? Also I am not sure if thats a good powersupply I am getting, is there another would you would recommend in that price range. Another thing is the cooling fan for the cpu do you know any better in that price range or do you think that ones good enough.

Any advice is welcome!

It looks great to me it should be a great system.

You should def. go with the antec power supply that you listed. Also why not got the prescott 478, its practically the same price if not ten bucks cheaper. Another thing is your hs, don't waste 45 bucks on that thing, either get a thermalright xp90, or xp120. If newegg doesn't have 'em in stock go to heatsink factory. Also instead of getting two smaller slower raptors to run in raid 0, just get the larger 76 gig raptor, as it has a better seek time and would end up being faster than two smaller slower ones in raid 0. I also doubt you will need the hard drive cooler if you put the hardrives in the front where they normally go, becuase there is a case fan up there.

SOrry to tired to read your system stuff. All I can say is go into cyber deals(towards bottom of oc forums. And look for the 59 case and a deal on raptors was just reported. SO check them out.
