Okey switch the intel board for this:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6813128283Get the correct socket to fit that for the processer
switch the 6600 for the 6800
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6814143030and for the case, well I like the new RaidMax X-1, however for a more mainstreem (for lack of a better term) look go with a Thematake Tusnami, or Lian-Li case.
Hope the build goes well, and keep us posted.

Not much to add. You guys recommend some good stuff.
I'd ditch the sound the card though and go with the mobo's.
Also, for future reference, AMD mobo's go with AMD CPUs.

www.newegg.com or
www.kustompcs.co.ukunfortunately where you live there is an Intel plant, so you'll have a very hard time finding AMD processers on the shelves of the local consumer electronics store ;(
