That would make for a nice set up. One thing though, you may need more than a 600W PSU to run a 2Gb GPU and 3Gb Quad core. 800W+ is what I'd recommend. |
Have a nice day

You should be able to do better than that for a grand, I can't put one together too eaily due to having never used AMD and ATi of recent, but an Intel/nVidia I could cook you up a few ideas, also, Novatech are a good choice, as are Overclockers UK, might wanna check them out for good pricing. |

AMD on a thousand pound budget? No, go Intel. It smashes AMD. I'll put together a real, real nice one for you. Just give me a few minutes. —- Here Motherboard http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/specpage.html?EVG-X58 Processor http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/specpage.html?IL-I7920DO RAM http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/specpage.html?OCZ-RPR186 GFX Card http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/specpage.html?EVG-GTX285 PSU http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817341003 (I couldn't find this part on the site you used, so try to find it, or something similar, in a site that sells to where you live) HDD(Same as your first pick) http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/specpage.html?WD-5001AA DVDROM drive(Same as yours) http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/specpage.html?SAM-S223B Case(Same, again) http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/specpage.html?ANT-NINE2 This PC absolutely stomps the one you showed. It will run anything at max, no problem, even Crysis. It all comes to about £1100. Is your budget that stretchable? Edited by MalAlmighty, Jun 13 2009, 02:11 AM.

I want a 10 thosuand dollar PC. Though I doubt that PC would actually cost anywhere near that much to build. |
