Thanks for the replay Chris , be sure I'm getting the 64bit version.

 

my only doubt is about the case , because the video card is large and doesn't fit the case perfectly (as far as I know , I might be wrong)

and also the air-flow in this case is not ideal

 

i was thinking about getting the Silverstone Raven RV02 or the antec 1200 ( or antec p183 v3 )

which one is better?

 

Thanks.

Out of those cases, the raven is a sweet case. I actually own the Antec 1200 myself though :)

The raven is a nice case in that it is very solid, has nice fans for cooling underneath and has a removable mobo tray.

I like the Antec1200 b/c it has so many fans. I upgraded alot of them myself for highercfm fans.

 

Only issue is dust control.

 

Be confident in either the Raven or the Antec1200, plus lots of room to grow for future additions to more graphics cards, more fans, etc.
