Upgradin' - Spore - 05-31-2008

So I feel like upgrading a few things on my computer. I got a Dell XPS Gen5 quite a few years back for about 1,000 dollars more than I should've and I think it is high time I get a fancy pants new case, mother board and cooling system.

So, I have a budget of about 200, 250 dollars. It would be swell if somebody could recommend a nice, roomy case, a motherboard fit for an e8400 dual core processor, and a nice fan to allow for some minor overclocking. Oh, and though not needed, I would like it to be powered by hamsters on treadmills if possible. Thanks buddies :3

He said $250 for a case, mobo, and cooling gear.  Read better plz.

I can't suggest anything specific, as my cases have been secondhand, and I haven't dealt with an Intel CPU beyond the 478s in my brother, mom and aunt's respective computers (P4, Prescott! DELICIOUS HEAT)...

But I hear Zalman's hot shit (figuratively speaking), cooling-wise. :o

I disable emotes when applicable because they annoy me. :<

Oh yeah, the Thermaltake Armor's supposedly a pretty good case.
