Talking || New Gaming i7 build. ||

i am more towards the i7 860 2.8ghz and the gfx card, Radeon HD 4890, because i heard its very good performance for its price. And a 750w power supply for future upgrades.

This is the build i got so far :
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16827151197 - $19.99
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822136319 - $74.99
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814150438 - $192.99
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817139006 - $199.99
http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboD...t=Combo.315602 - $426.98

-Total: $834.94

-NO CASE SO FAR.-
im open minded about case but i want a nice looking case with good ventilation.

(i have came across this case, idk about it tho. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811208027 - $34.99)

Also if anyone has any suggestions towards the build or the products i have chosen please feel free to inform im taking all suggestions into mind.
- Thank you guys so much

You forgot to get memory.........

The rest of it looks okay. Personally, I'd take a LG or Lite-On over a Samsung, and a base P7P55D instead of the Pro (cheaper) but you have chosen quality. XFX is not my choice for a video card manufacturer, but I realize the choice in 4890's is very limited now.

I have this case, I like it. Cooler Master Centurion 5

Cooler Master HAF-932

All of those cases would work well for a gaming build.
