A system like that, you could build a mini ITX system.

This is a good, solid drive with the SandForce SF-2281 controller. It isn't a top notch performance drive (buy an OCZ Vector or the updated SanDisk Extreme II if you want that), but it is a respectable drive. And at $160 for 240GB, it is a very good deal.

I would save a bit and get the i5. That depends on your usage. Are you going utilize the i7? If not, get the i5 and get a SSD with the money saved

Antec 900 case or Fractal R4

I have seen the 900 in person and is pretty quiet with lots of air flow. From what I seen on the r4 has a lot of sound dampening but I dont know about air flow

That's because I have a background that sits behind a 300x600 space, but sometimes google puts in an ad that is narrower... I suppose I should make the background narrower too huh... I thought for most people it would show a 300 wide. For me it's about 50% but that's in Japan

R4.The build quality is so much better that it's not even funny. The 900 is old news now.

If you dont plan on going with multi-monitor setup, I would go with the evga SO 2gb version... the money you save from there, you can get a larger SSD drive or a better one..

I believe you can remove the sound dampening stuff to get even better airflow on the r4.. It also looks sexy

Definitely the R4. I own the R3 and I'm completely 120% satisfied with it. Lots of noise dampening with excellent airflow.
