How do these look? I'm trying to get opinions about the parts, and bout how well it is thought they would act when used together.

As for the case, is if you can find a "see-through" one, now that would look awesome :D

If you're thinking on gaming, the graphics card is awful, the CPU could be better and the sound card is unecessary due to the motherboard having it's own sound chip.
I recommend this graphics card: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102871&cm_re=hd_5670-_-14-102-871-_-Product
And this CPU: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103724&cm_re=athlon_X3-_-19-103-724-_-Product

Set port-hole, or portal you new kids, for entry.

He might even return again as "Norvekh," from the distant but also future past.

This guy is trying to trick you, Meyfei, believe you me. Classy cats keep their guts concealed*. Having all your innards on display is just undignified.


*It's completely okay I removed the side panel from my tower because it's facing the wall. Baby just needs to breathe in this heat.

See-through cases are pretty dumb looking.

Unless they're part of a really cheap deal on Newegg and then it's aesthetics versus your wallet.

My case is a monstrosity and an aberration. Although if I was the target demographic of computer hardware, I'd probably find it awesome. It's all blue LEDs, see-through panels, and a vaguely-helmet-looking front panel that swings on a hinge to let me turn it on.

My computer's drives are white, and the case is black... so it's two-tone like a hillbillies truck. I just have to culture some rust spots and slap a confederate flag on the side.

Yup. *spit*
