For now, is all I'm saying. It would be the next thing I look to upgrading. When a psu dies, it can take out every component in your system. Yours should by fine for now, but I wouldn't trust it's long term reliability.

try http://www.geeks.com/products.asp?cat=CAS or http://www.xoxide.com/cases.html to find a better case, that rosewill has no real motherbord support and the pci slots should have individual screws to secure them, those flap type covers to hold them in arent very secure.

As for the ram, do you already have it, or do you need to buy it? And are mail-in rebates OK? There are a few other choices around that price range that will be better. Some with rebates, some without.

Whats a good case you can reccomend that on newegg for 25-20$? I dont want to order from anywhere but Newegg.

Your case is fine. I have a Rosewill here for my kids' computer, and it works fine. Not fancy or anything, but works fine, and is way better than a $20 case should be. As far as the slot holders, it does use screws. That thing on the back is just there to hide them.

And no big deal on the mem. Just saw a few other options in that range.

the only time i go to another place is for a case because cheap cases at the egg dont give you many choices, its rosewill or nothing lol.

you have to look around for a cpu or video card because of the high price you have to pay for em.

i like the cheap cases myself, frack paying $100 for a case when its just like you said, just a box to hold your parts. lol :toast:

A buddy of mine ordered a CPU HSF from Xoxide and next thing he knew his money in the bank was depleted. Come to find out he had his identity stolen. Now, I wont use that site. (never really liked it anyway as things are overpriced. Even for shipping)

well i've been buy from them off and on for over 2 yrs with out so much as getting any spam email so im shocked at hearing this. if its true it must be an isolated incident.

how can he be so sure it was xoxide? im not trying to say hes lying about it happening or anything but just asking

It was the only site he ordered from. And the only time he uses his debit card is for online transactions. I was shocked myself to hear of this. I have used them a few times without issues, but I normally steer clear from them because of their prices.

We all want to help you man.. and we all believe the same thing.. 5 people have said the same thing.. you need to think of a better psu.. I really don't feel that the "knockoff" that your getting will be good for what you want... they are ok for a person who is buying a system for their kids (wile-e) or for someone that isn't going to put every high end computer part that they can get and oc the balls off it.
We've been through this before... I've had problems with cheapo's and I don't ever want another friend or a member of a place I know to have the same problems...
A psu is one of the IMPORTANT buys in a build if it is a thought to get. And thats all we are trying to let you know... we don't want to see a thread started by you that says "my computer is in a loop of starting up, what should I do" or anything else of that matter.
But if you think its ok... and feel that you want to keep that psu, then its fine by me. Its YOUR stuff and we can only suggest...

I've been buying from Xoxide for a solid 4 years now without problems...he probably had a trojan or something. I wouldn't blame a highly reputable company for something like that.

I just got this case for a work build, it is noisy when the fans are running full tilt, but when idled down they still move alot of air and are quiet.



I would give the case a 9/10

Just wish the front panel drive covers were easier to remove.
Excelent drive mounting without screws, and it is isolated on rubber, and the cage is held in wiht thumbscrews. Quality build for the price.
