Hey guys, I'm planning on building my first workstation, I'm graduating in June so I need a workstation to work on my demo reel, my brother built one for me years ago and still have the case, power supply and dvd, the other stuff I dont think is usable. I've never over-clocked before, I'm gonna go for it(reading here and youtube videos). This site is incredible so many forums/articles of people helping. Thank you for your time. Carlos
current desktop(built years ago, dont use it anymore, use laptop now. acer aspire 6920 core 2 duo 2.00 ghz 4gb)

Case: Thermaltake SHARK full tower: http://www.thermaltake.com/product_info.aspx?PARENT_CID=C_00000085&id=C_00000088&name=Shark&ovid
I'm sure I can still use this case right??
Power supply, monitor, keyboard, mouse etc..
NEED:
CPU(I7 or dual xenon), motherboard, memory RAM(I want 8g but is really pricey), cooling system(planning to OC) and video card (nvidia quadro are better for my purpose)
