Wow, that's damn awesome for that price.

Building my tower now and it's costing me around 1,200$!

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119068 Get this case. The cooling is great for the price and it has a side air duct to help remove dust. If it looks to bland for you, you can get the version with a big side window.mastershake575

This is deff. the kind of feedback i was looking for!

Any reason for choosing that case in particular? Also, I, and others, I'd think, would recommend that you purchase a Radeon HD 4870 for the same price you'd get that 3870x2.LightSoulBlue

and for the video card, it just look really beefy and powerful:P , but I will look at the 4870 models and see what they have. Is it more powerful than the 3870x2??

So i'm building a new tower and I guess I need some advice on the hardware i'm purchasing. I just need to know if i'm making the right decision with these parts:

I have an HDTV that supports a PC cable so I don't need a monitor, and I have a logitech mx518 mouse which is my fav. mouse I ever purchased, and other accessories don't matter too much to me.

Am I making a smart decision with these products?

It comes to about 1200$ for it all, but I wanna know if I am spending too much..

Didn't you post this in SW?

What's wrong with you?

It will flop. Money can't buy talent. Just look at Gears of War. It was made with a measly $10 million, but it is one of the best games of all time.bungie93

HL2 came out 4 years ago.

It had the grav gun. and it was awesome.
