Hi everyone, I have compiled a list for my first build. I want a fast, quiet, all-around pc with the option of some nice gaming. I am undecided on the case and I am also unsure about cooling. How much cooling do I need to consider, # of fans, size of fans, fans for cpu, fan for graphics card etc.?? I don't mind paying extra for quiet fans. Below is the list so far
Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 LGA775 'Wolfdale' 3.00GHz (1333FSB)
Asus P5Q-E Intel P45 (Socket 775)
Corsair 4GB DDR2 XMS2 PC2-6400C5 TwinX (2x2GB)
Asus ATI Radeon HD 4850 512MB GDDR3
Western Digital Caviar Green 640GB SATA-II 16MB Cache
Samsung SH-S223F/BEBE 22x DVD±RW SATA Dual Layer ReWriter
Corsair TX 650W ATX2.2 SLi Compliant Power Supply
Samsung T200 20" Widescreen LCD Monitor
Case perhaps either
Lian-Li PC-7B PLUS II Aluminium Midi-Tower Case
or
Antec 300 Three Hundred Ultimate Gaming Case
Thanks for all your expert advice.
