My case has a side window mod, my case also has three pre installed blue fans and i brought 2 extra blue fans, so my theme is blue and the cathode kit just makes it look cooler

Pretty solid build. Would've went with an AM3+ motherboard and a Hyper 212 though.

I would but im on a tight budget, AM3+ motherboards are almost twice the price as an AM3. And i feel the Arctic Cooling Freeze is good enough for me. If i had the money i would defiantly take your advice though ;)

His processor already has a clock speed of 3.4ghz, he doesn't need anymore than that.

Very true, AM3+ will be good for my future upgrades though.

Clock speed means very little today. An AM3+ motherboard isn't much more anyways..the benefits of upgrading to a newer generation CPU without having to replace the motherboard is a huge pro and well worth the extra $.

New computer hardware is being updated so frequently now, so AM3+ would be a good option but as i said, they are almost twice the price.
