Help choosing graphics card, computer case ..
#1

I'm getting a new computer soon so I wanted to ask what is well worth buying.

I'm building it myself and buying the parts from different places, at the best price I can get them.

The graphics card is particularly important since I never had a really good Video Card so far. It has to be 1GB at least, and nvidia GTX460 chip. +SLI).

I'm planning to get either the
(1) MSI N460GTX Hawk ($219.99) CDN

or

(2) PNY GeForce GTX 460 (Fermi) OC 1GB
($204.49) CDN
both have OpenGL 4.0!

I was planning to get the MSI GTX460 Cyclone, but its the most expensive of the 3 ($249.99 CDN), and does not have OpenGL 4.0.

my first choice is still the 'Hawk'.

what should I get?
==============================================

Now as far as the computer case, I found 2 really good deals..
great discouts for 3 very good cases:

one is the
Thermaltake V3 Black edition - at an amazing dicount price of $34.99 CDN

and finally a good one - but more expensive - the
Thermaltake Armor A90 mid tower gaming case for $74.99 CDN after mail in rebate.

These are all good cases - I looked at the reviews - question is
is the price difference worth it for what you get?

Which one one these would you personally buy - given these prices?

thanks alot
