I know. The case was kinda. Well, you know what i mean about the case. The budget was the kicker. I figured the case would be ok to sacrifice. Although, when it comes to a new build nothing is ok to sacrifice. lol. Anyways, I just hit order. Total was $692.10. Woo-hoo!!! Itll be here soon!!!!! 3 day shipping and I paid for rush processing (only 3 bucks, proba a waist, lol) so itll be here WED And then the pain of getting Win 7 on it!!!!! Well, itll be a pain for me, at least.

Anyways, there was something else im still looking for. Either a headset or a mic. Kinda want one under 20 dollars that picks up on voice fairly well. Have any ideas???

Logitech ClearChat

You will want to go for a noise canceling headset because anything without it can get quite annoying for the people you're chatting with. This headset is a superb price for a noise canceling headset.

Thanks. Any other ones? Maybe free shipping?

Reply to blakehanson

Not too sure about this headset but its the only one in your price range with free shipping so if you want, you can have a go at it TekNmotion TM-YB100A. But I would probably stick with Logitech, I own a Logitech Digital Precision PC Gaming Headset and it has yet to let me down.

I use this set for my back up or on hot days:
