Can anyone suggest a 4 or 6 bay case w/window that is cheaper and smaller then either the Lian Li PC65B or PC75B.

I might scale down to Antec 650 watt PS

Might even scale down to ATI video card and upgrade later

Take a look at the build I posted earlier:

He has a nice big budget, so I would suggest this list of components, along with what he wants to add:

Case - Your choice...
Motherboard - ASUS P5K Deluxe
CPU - Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4GHz (From ClubIT.com)
RAM - 2 x 1GB Crucial Ballistix DDR2-800
Graphics - EVGA 8800GTX 768MB (From zipzoomfly.com)
Power Supply - PC Power & Cooling Silencer 610w (From zipzoomfly.com)
Hard Drive - Western Digital Caviar SE16 750GB
Optical Drive - Sony NEC Optiarc DVD Burner
Optional Aftermarket HSF - Tuniq 120 (From svc.com)

...says the man whos memory is RMA!

No seriously though, I have no idea about relative overclockbility, so trust gurusan over me. But yeah Ballistix (I read Crucial and just assumed it was ballistix).

Yeah...just bad luck I guess, i never went over 2.2vdimm which is what it's rated for. Lifetime warranty is a good thing
