What do you think of this rig? Any suggestions? I'm going to be using it for a gaming PC.

not bad, in all honesty

I would just grab a 60GB SSD and use Intels Cache system where the 60gb SSD acts as a superfast cache for the HDD, improves performance by moving most used files to the SSD, something worth looking into and would cut the cost a bit,

another thing i would do is change the case to something a bit better,
Source 210 Elite has USB 3.0 support, looks less gaudy to me but thats a taste kind of thing

for something a bit higher end

I'm assuming I should get an intel 60gb ssd? What series should I get?

[Crazyeyesreaper]

doesnt matter what ssd just Caching only supports upto 60gb get a Sata 6Gb/s SSD preferable Crucial M4 series, Intel, or preferably Samsung 830 series.

[Townie]

Right, so here's my rig now. Are there any changes I can make to make it cheaper while keeping the same performance? Are there any compatibility issues?
