    most cases with front fans will suck the dust in unless they have filters on them but even so you would have to clean them anyways,

      Get the best you can with your budget. If you have £50 left, use it to improve one of the components. Thats what i was always told by the person who taught me how to build my first PC

          :nod:

          I'd say, if you can afford the price, maybe get an 8800gt instead. If you look around for a good deal, you might find one a lot closer to the price of the 9600gt. (I dunno about in the UK though). And you get at least another 10 FPS out of it.

              I bought my 8800GT OC for $207 USD. I've seen other ones as low as $184 USD. I don't know how that compares to the UK, or if there are similar deals though.
