My budget is around $1000-1100, and i'd like your opinions on this rig. If you were building a computer for yourself what would you change here? Is the case good? Should I go with duo core instead (figured that the quad core would make it last longer as more applications will be developed to work with it)? Maybe it would be better to get a cheaper duo cpu and upgrade other components? The motherboard (I have no idea how to tell good ones from bad ones)? I already have a good power supply and sound card to use and I will include the OS in the price.
