Please recomend a computer case / ATX motherboard / and processor combo for gaming.?

My old amd 4200+ 2.2 Ghz dual core isn't cutting it on newer games. But my current motherboard is socket 939 and my case is micro atx with a really weird layout so I need a new case. So basically I have to replace all of that.





I already have a great video card, DVD drives, great power supply, and plenty of HD space so I only want to get those three items plus new RAM if needed for motherboard. Can anyone recommend the best, but still reasonably priced combo of the three. I don't want to have to deal with compatibility issues. I'm not hardcore or anything, I just want stuff to work.Please recomend a computer case / ATX motherboard / and processor combo for gaming.?
Motherboard $104: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as鈥?/a>


Does crossfireX and also comes with ATI HD3300 onboard video.


Processor $67: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as鈥?/a>


Amd Kuma dual core processor @ 2.7gHz with 2mb L3 cache (phenom platform)


Computer case $55: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as鈥?/a>


Antec 300 case, comes with 140mm fan on top and 120mm in rear.(power supply goes on the bottom which is a much better design!)


It also has 2 spots in the front for 2 120mm fans


Case fans $5 each: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as鈥?/a>


These fans move a nice amount of air and have blue leds on them to give your case a nice look! This will keep all of your components nice and cool!


That is probably one of the best deals you will find for a nice motherboard, cpu, and computer case. Good luck! :)


Oh and you mentioned ram at the end.


G skill ddr2 (2 x 2gb) @ 1066 $43: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as鈥?/a>


Since that processor is a phenom platform you can use ddr2 @ 1066 instead of 800! You should be able to run games quite smoothly now! :)
