What is the config of your PC? (i.e. processor, ram, graphics card, psu etc.)

In sort, post more details about your PC config before expecting any answer of your question.

For a 2.5k cabby get CM430 Elite and For a 2k abby nothing beats NZXT Gamma ;-)

I don't think mobos based 970 chipset is available in here now - they will be available with BD cpu release anyway - your current mobo supports CF so a better alternative would be a get MSI 990FX GD65 priced around ~9.5k or else get Asus Sabertooth 990FX ;-)

If you can't find Asrock 970 mobo you better opt for MSI 990FXA-GD65 - this should be around ~9.5k and much more better than any 970 ;-)
