Any Cheap old generic Case w/ Power Supply (450w is what I got) - The local Dump :D

All works fine up and running Windows 7 64-bit and Mac OS X Mountain Lion :-)

How does that wifi card work with OS X?

[ThePhysicist]

No GPU? And i suggest to buy a new PSU if it's very old... you can buy a decent 450 W PSU for less than 50$

wheres all the pictures? good job btw!

Congratulations on your build! Should upgrade your PSU next for stability for your system.

Does gaming not matter to you?

Either way the 6670 is extremely outdated and overpriced.

Perhaps consider the 7770 for $50 more and double the performance.

I would recommend the 7870, though, since it's just ridiculously superior.

Some Photos:

Tried to manage my cables, that's too hard on the case I got

For some reason I cant add photos to this post but here is a few pics.
