Do yourself a big favor and get a better cabinet. CM 690 II advanced or NZXT Tempest Evo. Both have good cable management and airflow both of which are necessary if you are overclocking. Both are around 5-6k. Also consider a CPU cooler. If you're overclocking too much you might need to throw away the stock cooler.

I dont understand one thing. How is it that low cost computers can be utilized to overclock easily? I always thought people need to invest in a good high end computer to overclock and utilise full potential of their computer.

From this thread, I think that I am either wrong or things have changed drastically. Can anyone please update me about what I am missing?

^^ There is nothing like cost. Athlon x4 can be overclocked beyond 3.5ghz in stock. This way, one can utilize every ounce of performance it has to offer.

I need a WIFI adapter card also. But, I dont want a USB WIFI adapter. It must be a WIFI adapter card that would go inside my PC.
