New rig....

[SoftwarePro]

So i am building a new rig. I am going to base it on a 3570k. My goal for this is to make a silent machine. I am probably going to go with a nVidia 660 ti just because i need cuda. Not sure which manufacture though. So i need ideas for a silent mid size Micro- ATX case. I want something that is going to be quite but is still going to have room for a couple drives, so like 2x SSDs, 2x HDDs. I want room to upgrade down the road. Right now i am thinking define r4. So yeah if you have any suggestions let me know, i will be sure to keep you guys updated and i will definitely post a build log.

Parts: All could change

CPU: 3570k (this actually wont change, I already have it)

Motherboard: Undetermined but thinking Asus p8z77-v pro

Ram: 16+ gb of whatever seems good at the time.

SSD/HDD: THese i will probably decide last minute just because of prices and everything. But this really isnt an important factor.

Case: Thinking a define R4, But this is open for debate

PSU: Probably a corsair

Fans: Noctua DUHHHHHH

GPU: 660ti.......have no idea which one exactly though....

Goal for the new rig:

Stay small...ish, I would like it to be silent and have a good graphics card, hence the 660ti. Other than that i am not sure yet. But cmon thats what i have all you awesome people for!

So fire away people!

What are you going to be using the system for?

Depends how much you're willing to pay

What are you going to be using the system for?

Everyday use, no gaming. But pretty much every adobe product. Plus a lot of random stuff like doing backups of computers etc. I am a IT guy so all that fun stuff IT people do.

I would like to keep the case under $150, everything else doesnt matter tooo much but i would like to keep it reasonable
