BFG 8800GT OC
4x1gb Corsair Dominator

aqua something or other case (both sides of case come off with some little pully handle thing on each side, makign the mobo easily removable!).

from a junkie?

Q6600 @ 3ghz £80
Abit IP35 Pro £35
BFG 8800GT OC £35
4x1gb Corsair Dominator £20
500gb Maxtor £25

Total £195 plus a fiver for the keyboard mouse.

Not a bad deal but hardly a bargain. Now if you had come on and said £100 well this thread would have delivered.

depends on case + psu, if they are good and came with it, and any additional cooling etc.

I'd second that, for £200 that's a really good PC.

sixthed - great pc

Screen/case/present or absent? If it has any form of screen attached and is powering on you're onto a winner.

I would be reluctant to buy a second hand overclocked computer with no information about the seller, but the q6600 is as close to bombproof as chips get.

I want to say clock it higher, but I have a suspicion P35 doesn't like quads much

Not to bad for £200.00, all of the components are pretty decent brands.

Richy1204 · 8 Oct 2009 at 22:50

AMG · 8 Oct 2009 at 22:53
