Hey there guys, here's some configurations in 3 different price ranges for both AMD and Intel. I'll make a list of the motherboards I recommend and the reasons why when I get back later today. Keep in mind that the Antec Sonata case comes with an Antec TRUE380 (380 watt) power supply, which is why it's my favorite. The Antec power supplies are excellent, plus the case is extremely quiet and still gets great airflow. If you want any computers configured for overclocking then just say so and I'll whip one up.
