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 Re: Upgradin' - Eschatos - 05-31-2008 Re: Upgradin' - IdiotWithGuns - 05-31-2008 I dont know if i should take this post seriously or not....Cough* Re: Upgradin' - A.

Re: Upgradin' - Wedge - 06-01-2008 He said $250 for a case, mobo, and cooling gear. Read better plz. Re: Upgradin' - Ceceil Felias - 06-01-2008 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 Edit: DIE EMOTES Re: Upgradin' - ToiletDuck - 06-01-2008 the coolermaster cm690 is one of my fav cases, it's on the cheap side too Re: Upgradin' - ScottyGrayskull - 06-01-2008 (06-01-2008, 01:45 AM)Ceceil Felias link Wrote: But I hear Zalman's hot shit (figuratively speaking), cooling-wise. :o :o Well that's weird.
