I NEED a new rig. PLEASE read and help?!

The case you picked isn't a full tower case. In general the Cooler Master cases run cooler and quieter than anything on the market. As Ken said, dump the ABIT stuff, look into ASUS (A8N-E ???). Antec 550W True Power II PSU. ThermalRight XP90-C HS, Enermax 90mm adjustable speed fan, and some Artic Silver 5 or Ceramique.

I highly stan behind what ken rippy an oz wiz have stated.

1.
You want the 4000 x2 64 bit SanDeigo core socket 939 due to the larger cache size.
$30 more
Yes you will notice a considerable diffrence.

2.
Look at Antec power supply`s and cases also cooler master but cases only.

3.
