I am going to buy aerocool high tech 7 pro. I want to know how many CFMs should the other 2 120mm fans be. I have found some really quiet fans which are 30 cfm and 8dba but i don't think they are enough.

    What are the fans going to be intake or exhaust? What are the specifications
    of your computer, need to know how much heat your computer is generating?

    You are going to need some decent cooling the core i7 pumps out a lot of heat to dissipate. Found a fan you might want to take a look at dose 38 CFM at 9dba best one I have found so far.

    If you are having a hard time deciding on what video care to get I would recommend the 2GB HD4870 just a difference in clock speeds.

    (sorry back to the fans)

    I found a noctua fan with 92cfm and 19dba.
    Now about the graphic card. I have decided to buy the hd4890 with 1gb. i will be playing at 1280x1024 and when i buy a new screen at 1650x1080. Is 1gb enough?
