Hi Guy's
I've been lurking for some time now. Needed a new build, but put it off waiting on price drops etc... Here is where I am at moment. Some idea's or opinions wanted. If I wait for the best of everything I'll never buy. So from everyones knowledge and experience when is the right time versus benefits to buy? Any conflicts so far or suggestions ??
Will be 24/7 use.
Some gaming Unreal Tourn. etc...
Overclocking in future now that I'll have a back up comp. for help
Budget around $1500.00

Should I wait black friday or after holiday rush? You guys have far more knowledge in this area than I. Waited for q6600, then 8800gt, which i'm glad i did. So when is the time right

Here's what I'm leaning toward:

Antec P180b

Thought about the 900 but the open side does nothing for me. Is there a heat issue here with the 180?

I do not need wifi but I heard good things about board, maybe future use
