K KoF Ripsaw In Runtime Messages 136 Location Where you keep your poptarts Nov 23, 2010 #7 There is a combo where you can get a HAF X, i7-950 and a sabertooth, CPU comes with a fan so if you dont plan to overclock dont worry about the cpu cooler. Also for $40 less you can get a Sapphire 6870 from Ebay,
