ARCTIC COOLING Freezer 64 Pro 92mm Ceramic CPU Cooler $30

Plus $100 for Windows 7 64-bit and that total is $1008

I'm unsure on that CPU cooler. Does anyone know if that one would be ok for OCing? Or if there is a better deal out there for another one?

Any suggestions, comments, or questions on anything would be very welcome.

I feel you should get a newer MB, one with USB 3 and SATA 6GB/S.

CM 690 with Win 7
http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.437504.11-119-137
Better case with more room, but no window.

Antec TP-750
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371025&cm_re=TP-750-_-17-371-025-_-Product
this is a big upgrade over the older TX750

Better cooler at a good price

For the Mobo, here one for $75, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157195&cm_re=extreme3-_-13-157-195-_-Product

There is also another one with Crossfire support for $15 more if you plan to leave that option for the future.
