I bought what i posted above since no one said things would conflict.  Just did the switch yesterday.  So far so good.  Only issue i have is the knobs on the front of case are supposed to control fan speed, they don't seem to be working.  Fans are on constant speed.  Not sure if i just hooked things wrong or need to add something.  Any advice or vids i can watch to fix it?

Funny thing is that is allmost the same built that i m using, 750 watt powersupply shout be enough. i m using a 500 watt powersupply and it is running fine. And the last thing that i wanna say is that that grappic card makes a hell of a lot of noise when it is getting warm, but thats the only downsite that i can find whit this build. I don't know if i missed anything so feel free to add things if you see them guys.

If you can afford a little more money, I would take a serious look at this case.  http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA4M53GC8942

 

it has large fans for maximum air flow with removable and cleanable filters to help keep dust out of the system.  Its easily accessible to add new items and hard drives are easily replaceable with outside access.  It will take all sizes of HD's and has plenty of slots for the HD's you may want.

Do you know which type your old power supply was? I will assume ATX. So just make sure you get an ATX supply of at least 500-600 watts. I use a 1200 watt supply, but i got a really good combo deal with case when I bought them together.

Anything new on this thread Willow? Has your problem been solved?

[Candy 1st MRB]

More than likely the power is not connected to the dials. If the case did not come with a diagram go to the manufacturer's website and look up documentation. You may also need a diagram of the motherboard to know what to plug the wires into. Keep us posted.

Were you able to get those dials working Willow?
