Help To Build My Rig

[acewin]

Dell, but u pay extra some amount for it.
If you feel of buying Antec 900 then go ahead its a good piece, but I did not get the idea of vertical and horizontal mount

 

[asingh]

^^
What he wants:
Horizontal Mounting : the HDD is parallel to the GPU.

And not:

Vertical Mounting : the HDD is perpendicular to the GPU.

Though the latter seems a better connectivity option. Cause if the SATA and power cables are routed from behind, the angle should be exact match when hooked up. Not sure why this unusual fetish, for horizontal mount..!

Ohhh thanks acewin...I will try to figure out some of d dell monitors as i think lcd is good but not tough so 5 years warranty is good option coz at least for 4/5 years i am not going to change this monitor.

About case some cases specially new once providing verticle mounting of hdd's like this below image...

*i41.tinypic.com/fvbwv6.jpg

some manufactures r giving space for attach cables in right side of case same as above pic [ U will see some more free space in right side for sata & power cable connection so if i want remove hdd only i have to open other side case panel too for safely remove connection of cables which i really don't want.

In some cases they r giving free space in left side for cables which is quite good but then we have to twist sata cable i think for twice to reach hdd from mb connction so i founf horizontal hdd mounting is much better then vertical. [ Every1 having there own opinion & choice ]

Ok i really like the antec 900 as it looks cool + horizontal mounting + great cooling so i am going for it.

Now only the monitor.... My work needs close view with monitor many times plez suggest me monitor which going to care my eyes. 22"/24" with good features & 5 years warranty is good.

I am confused now, the HDD should be parallel to the GPU, or perpendicular..?

Monitor : Plez suggest me monitor which going to take care of my eyes. 22" to 24" is good. Specially suggest me a good lcd brand so that i will check that brand site for features. I would like to purchase 5year warranty lcd monitor.

 

[acewin]

both look horizontal to me
BTW, I actually like the first one, earlier with IDE did not have choice. Taking out and managing HDD is easier, in what you call vertical, managing HDD affects other cabling a lot with SATA cables being longer and for each drive it being different cable.
also HDD not interfering with the cables give much more space IMO.

Yes, that is what I though. Horizontal mounting is parallel to the GPU, and vertical is perpendicular. The vertical option seems much better, since it is angled for easier access.

For monitor you can read this. I will not recommend a thing other then this. It is manageable under 14K.

@asewin : I really don't like that hdd mounting which is in ur provided image coz as i know how much gfx card i am going to use horizontal is much better for me.

In ur given image i don't see any power cable or sate cable going to hdd ?? I saw 2 sata cables going from mb but i don't know how those sata cables rich hdd ? & i really don't see power cables.

As if u read my post no #43 i really don't want to remove right side panel of case just to attach/remove sata & power port into hdd so for me horizontal is much better.

& as i am going for msi x58pro-E i know where the sata ports on this mb & which hdd mounting is good with this mobo

=====================

wow...i seriously like that monitor. Going to check other dell products too. I check LG monitors too with 5 years warranty but they seems quite costly regarding there features & looks

Thanks to all for great help. Going to finalise my rig soon by selecting monitor

 

[acewin]

asswin says he also does not know the story of the cables, but the setup looks all clean.
OP, he has asked you to look for more pics of CM 690, but in the end it is your choice, and if you are getting a good deal then why not Antec cabinet also looks good.

 

[CHALLENGER]

yehhh & i am pretty sure that with antec removing or adding hdd's is quite easy as psu is on bottom there is good space to remove/add hdd's. Ya if psu is on top then may be its tough to remove/add hdd's as all type of wires n ports r coming in way of hdd mounting.
