He doesn't have to, it's just a nice case, good for cables and for future upgrades, also has great airflow and looks immaculate, just within his budget so I chose it.

That is completely up to him as he's going to be living with it. I just put it there with my opinion.

wasnt hating, just didnt know why he would need to waste money on a full case when he really wouldnt put it to use.

I agree, I always put that case as long as it's within budget and usually let them decide and change it to one they like.

the 4350 is a beast at mid range price....its hard to build a budget true gaming rig for 1100 with monitor and everything else...your builds dont even have a monitor, if he didnt need a monitor than i would suggest the 8350 instead. and im not an amd fanboy either as i do run intel.

If he mentioned he needed a monitor I would build a powerful pc with a monitor.
