Great PC. Maybe I could say you wasting your money a little on the Case, they look really nice but a HAF X or 932 will offer better airflow and is much cheaper. Maybe with the savings you could throw in an SSD or additional HDD.

+1 on that. Save some on the case and get a big SSD for Windows and FSX

I only got the HAF for its airflow. High Air Flow. I couldn't care if it looked like an A380. So save but if you are really conscious of looks, the 650D or the 600T oth from corsair would be great.

I forgot to include the SSD, because its coming from another source: SAMSUNG 470 Series MZ-5PA128/US 2.5" 128GB SATA II Internal Solid State Drive. I'll look at the 650D, but I'm partial to full towers. Dan

I'd go for a SATAIII SSD instead of SATAII, twice as fast.

One other thought comes to mind. I have an older Netgear Rangemax wireless router connected to another computer. Any thoughts on which wireless adapter I can use with the above configuration? Probably a stupid question, but I'm comfortable with that. Dan Cole

The 650D is only 4cm smaller than the HAF 932 so you only loose height. That height is usually used for bug radiators and i am guessing you won't have one.
