Don't get the 1600mhz ram unless you're overclocking!

Go for the 1333mhz ram instead! :)

The Sniper sounds like the best case to me, so go for it! :)

the ram is the same price, sniper cost the most but don't see what i get for it, i just want a case with good cooling and good filters

The best gaming case hands down is the CM HAF-X but it's also one of the most expensive...it comes with 4 massive fans, lots of space, great airflow, easy to upgrade and very well built.

I'll have to contradict that Little about it being the best Petchi. The believe the Silverstone FT02 will shine as bright or brighter than the haf x :)

when i last checked, it only comes with 3 big fans an i small back exhuast. 1 front, 1 side, 1 top and 1 small exhuast.


Back to the original post, if you can get a side fan on the storm enforcer, id pick that, but for now, it would be the sniper.

Well it does come down to personal preference in the end but I prefer CoolerMaster cases and one with a see through side panel. The HAF-X has been voted the best gaming case on several sites comparing cases for gaming and enthusiasts alike.
