If your getting the Phenom II x4 you may as well get the 970. Its all of like $20 more expensive, for I think a 400 mhz upgrade. Thats not great, and a simple overclock would make it up, but its still nice to have newer versions of stuff.

And if I were you I would avoid big glowing cases. The light is slightly irritating, especially for me cause my comp is directly across from my bed.

My computer is under the table.
So it's fine and I don't want a glowing one.
Great for showing off but wastes power.

Usually its just small LED's that light up so power is never really an issue. And its preference really. I have a tempest EVO now, but I had an old Lexa blackline and it pissed me off that it lit up so much of the room at night.
