    NewEgg's ShellShocker today is Antec's ever-popular 900 series case WITH one of their excellent EA650 Power Supplies for only 139.99/$119.99 after MIR.

    An excellent deal in its own right; but today they're also offering a Combo deal along with at the bottom of the page; the Case AND a GIGABYTE GV-R567OC-1GI 1GB Radeon 5670 Video card for $219.99/$199.99 after MIR.

    An EXCELLENT package for any of my fellow forum members looking to build a new beast; it has huge bays, huge board space, and built-in ports for external liquid cooling.

    Good luck!

    I'll pass this info on. I already finished my build a few months back using the Themaltake V3 black edition case.

    Nice deal, I wish that it had been available a couple months ago when I built my Quad-Core.

    Yeah same for all those Micro Center sales here. I buy (2) 500 GB hard drives when they were like $50 each and 3 months later they had a 2TB on sale for $99 a week before payday.

    Not quite big enough...
    I got one with an 850w PSU, TWO 460's in SLI and 3x 2TB HDS with 8GB of RAM.
    Having space issues.....

    Wouldn't be so sure... the EA650 is a true PFC Power Supply; they can handle a lot more abuse. As for the 900 case... I know a fellow with 4 (damIfICanRememberNow) cards in SLI AND liquid cooling. It's large.

    Not as big as my EMP Shielded Nastec Case 2000 from the '80s, but still...
