The case is fine but that is a very low quality power supply that comds with it. If you buy a retail CPU you don't need the extra fan. The 7600gt is a great video card choice. What is your maximum budget? There are some better gaming processors out there. Not a terrible start, though.

Ultra units are junk... even if your on a budget, I'd recommend something of reliability for your setup.
Have a look at this site: Ncix.com. Tigerdirect.ca is just okay. |
