Well First Get Windows 8. Should Be Perfectly Obvious Why You Need That.

the casing is more of convince than the looks for me.. i want something nice but tbh

The style,size, and slots available on a case helps with me modding it more,upgrading and really helps with the "Airflow" thus me not worrying about psending more $$$ ona diff case in the long run and also not having to buy new parts for when my ish gets fried.. although the liquid colling i want for it does help as well



"this is what I have so far for a kit" (lemme know if i need anything else for a working pc.. i dont wanna buy all this and be missing somthing lamo
