Time for some upgrades, and I don’t mean the CPU or mainboard because that will come later. The budget is €520 and here is what I came up with so far:
Antec P183

I picked this case because it has a good bang for buck factor. I don’t need a fancy looking case, just something that stops the dust and dampens the sound.
Scythe S-Flex 1200RPM

Going to add this as case fan.
8-Pin PSU extender

To make sure my 8-pin cable is long enough.
Belkin cable ties

To tie some cables together (I can use these inside the case right?).
TRUE fan holder

I’m using the fan clips now, then saw this fan holder. It seems nice.
Asus Xonar D1 Low-profile

The D1 doesn’t require external power, so no extra cable mess!
XFX HD4770

Yes, it’s this version of the card, not the one with the ugly cooler.
Creative Gigaworks T3 2.1

Finally some quality speakers. Optical told me to pick these over the Logitech Z-2300’s.
Total: €508 - money left €12.
