New Computer Build

The time has come where I am almost ready to upgrade. But not in the sense of my laptop, no, I plan on starting from scratch with a new tower. I plan to keep this build under $500, and I don't think I will have any issues.

My current machine: http://zelaron.com/forum/showthread....ghlight=laptop

First off, i'm looking for speed. This new computer is going to be used for large amounts of storage, my 'media center', as well as the oh-wonderful gaming. It's a pre-emptive Diablo 3/Starcraft 2 build. I've been currently browsing through barebone kits and have a couple narrowed down on www.tigerdirect.com ..

I'll update this page tomorrow once I go over a few possible orders tonight.

i have another case if you want to use it
