For heaven's sake dude, keep your request for ideas in ONE thread. Dont spam threads as it will affect the flow of ideas from people who are trying to help you.

I think Corsair VX 450 is more than enough. 550 maybe. 650 is overkill imo. Twin Frozr better from what I read in reviews. And finally you sure you want to buy a cabinet worth 5.5K ? NZXT M59 looks good. Check that out.

You need to learn to wait for people to reply. People wont always be online and waiting to answer questions here. We all have our own lives too, I am sure you know it too.

A cabinet's functionality and user's needs is equally important as its price.

i chose 650w so that in the future i could put extra 4gb ram and if needed a corsair h70 if i decide to overclock

will there be a problem if i use 650W insted of 450W

No there will be no problem if you go for higher PSU but I doubt if even 8 GB RAM + Cooler will require more than 450W of power. I could be wrong though.

Cabinet is good but the major question that comes up is if you need it. Everyone recommends the Benq G2220HD around here. I think that's your best bet.

@OP: All HAF cases are good and provide excellent air flow. Both HAF 912 and 922 are mid tower cases. I would recommend 922 as it is a better version than 912, in terms of graphics card support.

What is your overall budget?

Samsung px2370 is an excellent monitor but if you can wait a bit you should consider Viewsonic VX24543mh-LED also.It will be launching soon.As far the cabinets are concerned i think its a personal choice.Both the cases are good HAF 912 Advanced for its all black interior and transparent window. HAF 922 in terms of slightly better airflow.

HAF912 is good only for look, not on the board. It lacks of space & chances are high being neckbottled in future during upgradations & material quality is cheap along with the price tag.

@Ankit: Haf-X is twice the cost of HAF 912. Moreover haf912 is mid tower whereas the X is full tower.

HAF912 is worst IMO, but HAF-x is awesome, if you can afford it.

Again HAF 922 is good w.r.t price, but with 8-9k you can buy a NZXT phantom Full tower.

HAF912 -5k, HAF922 - 6k-7k & HAF932 - 8k-9k, HAF - X -10k+

Don't buy HAF912, go for CM Storm Scout - 6k.

Go to the below section & find yourself, what suits you better.

(ASUS GTX560 direct cu 2 top) - Stick with this.

Haf 922 is the better option if you are willing to pay more. My vote also goes to nzxt phantom.

@ankit0_0: Just like d3p5or says. Dont buy HAF 912, whereas 922 is very good at its price point. Also, I want to add that if you plan to use liquid cooling like Corsair H70, dont buy Phantom, NZXT Phantom is a case that cannot support the H70 and also enable you to use all the fans in that cabinet that come with it.
As for the HAF X that I bought, it is awesome, the mere weight of the case is making it sturdy. You can go and refer those N number of reviews about the X out there, if you want more details. In short, the flagship case of CM, is really holding its own.
How much do you plan to spend on your case?
