Case: Cooler Master Stacker 830-832 are nice cases in my opinion... Worth taking a look at.

Get 3. Q6600(225), Q6700(290), Q9300(290) & 9450(350) not sure which one maybe someone can help u with it.

I heard tha the 45nm Q9450 can overclock better and beat the Q6700. It also uses less voltage and less heat which i dont think u would care. but not sure which one will give u a higher score.

the q9450 is crap in terms of overclocking compared to the q6700 because of its 7.5x Multiplier, sure its faster clock per clock, but what does that matter if it can't clock to match it
