[vegettoxp]

Hello there Guys, I am back with my final decision for my current Rig. Some of you make have followed my Building a New Rig Thread and thank you for all your help. I have made up my mind and I am gona be updating the following Items with my current Rig. I just need your advise on if it is a good or bad choice. Again Thank you for all your help guys.

Current Case - Lian Li PC-7FW (Black). Planning to update my current case for cooling reason and future proof case and my choices are Following CM Cosmos 1000 or CM Cosmos S, Which one would you guys recommend me getting?

Current Headsink - Thermalright Ultra 120 w/120mm Fan. Planning to update with with the following cooler - Prolimatech Megashadow w/120mm Fan. Good Choice or Bad?

Current Graphic Card - nvidia 8800GT. Planing to go with either ATI 5850 or 5870. But I am also keep the door open for nvidia GT300 Lineup. Your Thoughts?

Power Supply Not Sure (Current Corsair HX620W) Keep or New One?

Also on a Side-Note, Is the Corsair Dominator GT Memory Airflow Fan Universal? Do they fit any module setup?

Again Thank you for all your help guys and help me with my Christmas Gift List.

i have that lian-li case, but without window, i like it

why a new heatsink? you will gain like 1C maybe..

keep the HX620 until your next big build, it's a great psu

my HX620 runs an i7 and 4850X2 just fine

I do like the current case, but I don't think it is really good when it comes to cooling. I might be wrong, but all it has is one interior and exterior fan and the Cosmos S lookes to be more towards cooling.

Well, it's at least the third topic you open that talks about replacing that case... What more can we say?

That case is pretty decent (although I very much preferred your previous CM stacker), I don't see any real need to upgrade...

Your CPU is likely overkill for your usage (not that you ever said anything about that)

Your heat sink is one of the best, definitely no need to replace that

Your current PSU has plenty of power to spare for the foreseeable future (and it's a good quality unit too)

8GB of RAM is more than enough for just about anything, and a fan is totally unnecessary, unless you're into mad OC'ing or something

Hard drives? We have no way of knowing if what you have fits your storage needs.

And finally, your video card. Not having the slightest clue about what you do with your PC (do you play games even? all the latest titles on a 24" LCD at max settings or something?), I'm not sure how we're supposed to guess what you need (not that I keep up with video card stuff much)

You don't even say what you do with it (video? rendering? gaming? encoding? just checking email?), or what it's not good enough at or whatever. We can only guess so much.

How bout not upgrading??? I really see no need to upgrade at all as your current PC is as powerful as most new i7 920 builds, except for maybe the graphics card which could be upgraded depending upon what you use it for. Any more upgrades would probably be for bragging rights only ATM.

Case is being replaced with Cooler Master HAF 922
