Coolermaster cm 690 Mid Tower Black ATX Case 5X5.25 5X3.5INT No PS Front USB Sound Firewire & eSATA

Samsung SH-S223B/BEBE 22X DVD+-RW SATA DVD Writer Black OEM

Then I was gonna throw in my OCZ gamextreme 600W psu and EVGA 7950 gt ko vid card.
I'm really tired right now, so I need a second opinion on if I missed anything or not.

OS is covered.

Dont know yet if he wants a sound card... that could come later.

Here's what I got, with an included graphics card, as the 7950 will limit it's gaming performance massively.

Except now the case is redundant. Keep your original It wouldn't match the ATI card

Ahh, I see. If it's not a gaming PC, then you can probably get cheaper RAM, leave the stock heatsink on and stick with your original Motherboard.

That should make it even cheaper.

And if you want it less, get a cheaper case or cheaper CPU, such as the E6-series.

My cheaper CPU offering to him will be the E5200. I want him to get the 690 cause I've wanted to do a build in it for awhile, If anything I want him to go more expexive on the case and get this: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.as … 6811112222 because I would really like to do a build in it.

I may try to sell him on one of these though.
