I agree with you, but I currently have this case and temps have dropped dramatically from my last case:

It's a full tower so it's very tall, but that means more room for drives and more wriggle room when building. |
Trust me, while that case is good my choice has WAY more airflow.
There's always the Antec 900 as well if you want air flow. The new revision of the 900 adds fan speed switches on the case rather than having to open it up to change the speeds as well as adding dust filters.

I also saw a shell shocker deal on the Antec P180 case for $89.99

Waiting in general is pretty bad. There's always something better coming up. However, this time we can't even be expecting budget cards: We didn't get budget cards at first when Vista/DX10 was released and I doubt we're getting them right away now, either. Budget cards come later. Besides, 4870 ought to be powerful enough for quite a while and I also doubt games are going to start supporting DX11 seriously until a few years later. Other than that, your advice for 4890 didn't sound bad.
Haven't been very much into PC hardware lately due to no need myself, but that did seem pretty good. Also, it might be a good idea to check the HT someone mentioned; it could be important.

Thanks in advance for your input. |
Great comp, go for it. Case looks cool too (i mean esthetically).
