That's what I came up with. No sense in getting a 3770K over a 3570K/2500K for 95% of people, same with 16GB of RAM.

I have the same case..
Forums/t=4367931/my-computer-rate...-pics.html I will try to add better pictures of it. And I have the i7 and ill say that a i5 would be suitable. The i7 was overkill for me. Including the 16gb ram.
Other thoughts I like the case. I can take a video for you if you would like and send it to you.

Did Your Case Come With The Blue LED Fans Or Did You Have To Buy Them Separately? Because I Am Ordering 2 Blue 12" Sharkoon Blue LED Tubes As Well, So Will The Blue LED Fans Come With The Case?
