    Hey guys, I've been looking at building a nice gaming computer for a decent price. I want to be able to run games at 1080p for at least the next few years. Here's everything I've picked out:

    AMD Phenom II X4 955 BE
    SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 6950 1GB
    Kingston HyperX 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 1333
    Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TB
    ASUS DRW-24B1ST DVD burner
    Antec EA-650 GREEN 650W

    I am definitely planning on OCing, so I'm going with a Xigmatek Gaia SD1283 cooler.

    I do have a question about the motherboard, though. I've decided kind of blindly to go with the MSI 760GM-E51. Will the cooler work with this motherboard, and is it a good choice? If I should consider a different mobo, please let me know.

    Lastly, I will be purchasing a Cooler Master HAF 912 case, seeing as it's pretty flexible. Another question: does the case come packaged with two fans or not? Obviously it supports a lot of different fans, but I don't know whether they're included or not.

    Thanks!
