Coolermaster CM 690 instead of an Antec 900. The antec 900 wont be a very nice experience for the first time builder for SURE. (Example, one of my friends who i forced him to build his own PC took 6 hours). The CM 690 is cheaper in addition and will offer similar performance. I'd grab some extra fans as well though.

CM 690 + Three more 120mm fans is cheaper than one Antec 900 and will make life much easier, more space too!

ehhh its like back and forth with the cm 690 and 900

i wonder which one is better at air cooling though. (with max fans)
