Ermm only thing that need screw would be the Mobo I guess, GPU mine came with those thumb screw just can unscrew with hand biggrin.gif
HDD are tool less just snap in, same goes to DVD room. Nowadays casing are so good unlike last time all casings need screws to screw in every component.

Anyone can recommend me a case for this build?

fx 6300
M5A97
seagate 1TB
corsair 8gb x1
Saphire HD 7950
Corsair 750W Bronze

preferrably if the case can be found at lowyat? I was thinking of NZXT source 210 but i can't find it at lowyat or idealtek? I would love if the case is < RM200

the Fractal Design R4 is your best bet in this case, the others is not much of a silence chassis

I see, I also heard it has great airflow but do I have to add aftermarket cooler if I want to overclock?

you don't have to, but it's recommended

reason is that when you OC, temps go up so a better cooler will be able to cool it better compared to the stock HSF

i agree with clem. if you want to do OC. better get a cooler. (water cooling for me). you dont want to waste your board/procie if you want to do some OCing. improper cooling may lead to burning your procie/board to crisp. biggrin.gif tongue.gif

please don't mislead others, you won't burn things to crisp due to improper cooling.
A CM Hyper 212X is pretty much enough to keep a 3570K below 85° running at 4.0GHz.
Having a highend wc setup but max oc to 4.5 only, not really worth to invest, just my humble opinion of course. sweat.gif

Indeed, the money spent on WC might able to get an i7 already, which is better processor than i5.

these are correct, besides processors nowadays have a safety mechanism that would shut down if it gets too hot to prevent you from destroying it.

WC is one way to cool things down so it's really up to the user if it's worth it or not, if you've got the $$$ and the time or simply want a rig that looks like no other, then WC might just be for you
