Hiya guys my brother is looking for a new build I have had a look on Overclockers and i have a rough idea in mind of a decent build.

Here is the catch

it must include a windowed case and preferably micro atx as he doesn't have much room

any ideas appreciated

Have fun.

There are currently some issues of batch of TwinFrozr's leaking oil from their bearings, that may be worth knowing if you are considering this card as a purchase.

I have personally, in the past, had no issues with the TF series but its only right to inform you.

An alternative would be:
