first of all, did you buy this, or are you planning on buying this?

If you're planning on buying it, could you please gives us a budget total?

Also no idea why you're going with AMD over Intel atm, though haswell's around the corner so it could be better to just wait a little bit.

Yeah, might just get it on newegg since the shipping is so expensive on CyberPowerPC

Nigga, my comp was worth 500 in total. I run BF3 at 70-80 fps with no AA. If you save all the money on another power supply and a graphics card you can have a better system then the one you are thinking of buying for cheaper/equal cost.

Is there anyway I can change the case?

No, but you can just buy a nice Cool Master case for 60 dollars on newegg.

Why are you spoilering links to newegg?

Also do you HAVE to get a prebuilt or are you willing to build one?

I can build it.

EDIT: How do I ground myself so I don't short out the motherboard.
