Also, I'm not even sure if that Antec DF-10 will fit the h100. I've never even heard of that case. I would say a case upgrade and a better mobo as suggested above wouldn't be a bad idea. And yes, the 2600k is a waste of $100 over the 2500k. If you end up upgrading to Ivy Bridge next year, the 2600k is even more of a waste! Cases I would recommend: Corsair 650D obviously! Otherwise 600T is decent and the HAF series are very functional.

Antec Darkforce cases. Quite possibly the most vulgar cases on the planet.

The DF cases have very little room room for cable management, something I am sure the Corsair cases would have but I don't think they look really bad. I would rather one over a Thermaltake or maybe even one of Silverstones 90 degrees motherboard mounting cases.

both the ASUS and the MSI are good boards but I would go for the ASUS one. You could also try a GA-Z68X-UD4 although it features the classic BIOS. The Corsair is the best in those and IMO is incomparable to the Thermaltake cases. The price is high though and for the price of the 600T you could get the Antec 1200 or the HAF X.

For the newbie to OCing it probably would be the best choice to go for ASUS. Corsair make very very nice cases but it depends on what you want, space or quality. I choose space but cooler master gave me a fair bit of quality to.

It makes a bery big difference what case you choose? Space is good but what means "quality" in this case? harpsi

How well its designed. Meaning how much airflow the vital components get, does each component have adequate cooling etc, and also materials used (plastic, metal etc). In your case, the corsair is the best quality. 1: its corsair. They are known for top quality. 2: It has tons of space and has tons of fans etc. 3: comes with a great warranty

And for the overclocking the processor to, let´s suppose 5 or 5,1 GHz if possible, PSU with 850W and Corsair H80 Cooler are enough? Or do I need PSU with 950W and Corsair H100? harpsi

H80 and 850W is plenty, so long as its a good quality PSU.

That is right.A good quality PS gives a high continuous power and not only high peeks like with cheaper ones.
