First build. Spec check.

[Fortunado]

Hey!
My current PC is like 6 years old, about time to replace it
The budget is about 1200-1300. I already have semi-decent monitor (Dell ST2410), Windows7 64, mouse and keyboard.

So here's the spec I'm looking at.

Tell me what you think, any suggestions, etc

Cheers!

Thanks for replies!

Right, here's what I've got now

The only thing I'm not too sure about is the case. I wanted to go for CM-690 first, but they're out of stock =/

yeah this.

ive watched a few video reviews and its looking really nice.
im going for it also.
this case could do for an even further future build or even 2.
not that others wont, im just saying.

Yeah, I've also watched some reviews, apparently the H70 cooler doesn't fit in that case =/

Guess I'll go for HAF X.

EDIT: I might wanna add another GTX470 later, will that PSU be enough?

wow i was under the impression that a "Full tower"
with "Dual radiator support" and seeing pictures of it
with a "Noctua NH-U12P SE2 Dual Fan" could hold anything.
isnt that 1 of the biggest cpu fans around?

guess i was wrong

I don't know, but here, in one of the comments, the guy who did the review says that H70 doesn't fit. It's different from Noctua though, the radiator is attached to the rear exhaust.

Hopefully it fits fine in HAF X
