Antec 900 II

Looks kind of bulky, considering that i have an antec 300.
samsung hd have bad rep for failing early. Go for Western Digital or Seagate.

WHY DIDNT I WAIT?!
@OP
get the 900 II and use the money from the difference from the 1200
get rid of the amd and replace it with an i7
yes, dont get a western, seagate is fine.
if you can cut down money somewhere, put it to get a 4870

Stick with AMD its pretty good build.
Are you going to overclock?
and asdfsad i7 motherboards are pretty expensive.

Don't know about the Samsungs, but Seagate Barracuda (the newer/larger capacity) hard drives have been some of the most unreliable so far. I'd opt for a WD.

Good build, I don't know about AMD motherboards tho.
You could probebly get an AM2+ to save some money.
PSU, I recommend a CORSAIR 450WATT.
It will work great for your build, quite also.

No that one isn't good.
a 450W corsair is better then that. Gives out more power.

Them current Seagate drives are better used for packing sardines then your data, although Seagate said they release a firmware fix to unbrick those drive that are affected.
