To make my pc look good, I only spend money on the quality of the case (ie, CoolerMaster or Lian Li) and the acoustics of it.

I just spent $$,$$$ buying furniture for my room where I keep my PC and honestly, an extra 50-150 to buy a nice looking case like a coolermaster that blends in well with the rest of the furniture is well worth it for me. I'm sick of beige cases and beige drives.
