After seeing the Alienware X51 I decided for my next build to be micro atx. I love the idea of a small form factor, but still being powerful enough to handle all of todays games. Here is what I've picked out so far, but I'm open to suggestions. This is replace a 4 year old system, so I'd like this to be somewhat future proof which is why I picked the motherboard I did.
Because I got it for $110 I've already purchased
