This is my first true gaming computer. I have friends that have done it in the past so they will help me with the assembly.
What computer will be used for: Gaming
Budget: $1,000 + or - a little (NOT including shipping)
Country I'm buying parts from: USA
Brand Preference: Not really, but I guess ATI/AMD
Intend on using current computer parts: No
Overclocking: I don't think so....
Resolution I game at: 1920x1080
When do I plan to build it: As soon as I get feed back, and buy the parts.
But i'm in no hurry, I could wait a few weeks.
Do I need a monitor, keyboard or mouse: No
The build:
Case: I cant decide between these two cases. Is the extra fifty dollars worth it?

Also, do I need a heatsink for the motherboard?
Thanks for the help!
