Ok guys I need input on this build again, this time I got a cheaper case but was able to get more RAM, a card-reader, and better gfx card...what do you think ? (also I already have a 300 gb WD SATA HDD so its not included)...btw this is on a $500 budget, and at this point I am at a total of $497 (tax included). I plan on using this pc as a computer animation student this coming year ! also for some gaming ( I play WoW, and plan on picking up COD4 & Crysis)
