For the same price range of that Motherboard, you can get much better models which will make it even more future proof..

Well, ignoring the aggressive looking performance case for a mediocre build, I guess it's ok.

Though, it would be better to go with a Wester Digital or Samsung HDD.

I chose the case for the impeccable air flow, as it includes three fans, easy to install HDD bays, cable management and the 4 usb ports on the front :) you dont get that in the boring ones....

As I wasn't sure about this H67 business, I found the same MOBO you're looking for but £35 cheaper.. Amazon.
