    Sounds good to me just wish I had the money too. I have never had a prob with a Soyo, well actually I have but that is because I removed the mouse the fast way.

    Not sure on the case really depends who makes it. The hard drive sounds like a good deal just make sure that it has a good warrenty, do not want it to die a year later and have to buy a new one. You got alot of space there, I still can not fill up 10 gig. Of course I seem to love to reformat for fun.

    Instead of getting WD 120, why don't u go for 2 Maxtor 40/60? You have an option of going raid and also don't need to worry about anything dying on you, since you will always have one to spair. I really love my Maxtor HD, just wished I had the money to get another one and a mobo that supported raid.
