Hey man, got some advice. You're gonna want a case that doesn't draw huge attention to it, so the games/controllers can really shine. I can recommend the Fractal Design Black R3.

As a lot of the games will be party games and it seems silly to overspend on the GPU, maybe just go for a 560Ti.

As for controllers, wired xbox controllers are your friends (or wireless with dongles). They can used with N64 emulators and configured to whatever control setting you like. Mario Party with the emulator advancements (AA, smoothing, textures etc.) + 4 people + 4 controllers is a bunch of fun.

Maybe a dance mat or two would be awesome fun.

Also, you don't wanna be dicking about with the PC getting everything to work while your friends become impatient. Make sure it's all ready to go, perhaps set up some kind of automation system so it starts N64 games on start-up.

Sorry for poor formatting. ¬Beard

Pretty much very similar to Kil'n People and Altered Carbon.

Cool man, I'll keep that in mind next time I buy fans.

I bought it second hand from a WCing modder. He had done the panel and the paint.

He basically cut out the door and put a bit of Acrylic in there. I'll ask him for some instructions if you're interested. I'm quite sure it's not too hard.

Yep, the drive and 5 1/4" bay door(?) are painted red, to go with the theme that was in there previously, I like it :)

Are you in Australia? If yes I'd consider something. Thinking of using it myself though.

I imagine the fan on the Hyper 212 is 120mm @ 2K RPM?

I have yet to buy BF3, but I run Skyrim on Ultra with everthing maxed out and I average 55FPS.

Thanks for the lighting compliment! I was worried how people would respond to it.

I purchased the case second hand ($60 including lights) and the guy had made this custom side panel to show off his previous build in there.

I don't have huge experience with different fan brands as i'm relatively new (got this build last october) but from what I see, Noctua are the go for quality fans.

Hey Nebris,

I got the Logitech MX518 a few months ago and find it to be an excellent, as well as reasonably priced, mouse.

It has a smooth and quiet scroll wheel, with buttons that increase and decrease the sensitivity on the mouse (above and below the scroll wheel).

It looks nice, with fake "dents" (I'll leave you to decide if you like the look).

There are 2 buttons above the "thumb-hole" which I have set up as forward and back buttons.

It glides over surfaces quite well, although it preforms poorly on my desk (Ikea) and jerry-rigged mouse pads such as a magazine. I recommend use with a mouse pad. The MX518 is weighted nicely and is comfortable to hold, whether it be whole-hand browsing or three-fingered twitch gaming.

Overall I can recommend this mouse greatly, excellent all-rounder mouse with a button configuration/layout and cost which are pleasing to both the mind and wallet.

4.5/5

The MX518: http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=258_697_701&products_id=8476

Most of Logitech's mice seem to have a similar layout (apparently the G500 is pretty good): http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=258_697_701
