Gradual build - Or wait?

[Buchanan0204]

Well my impatience got the better of me and I've ordered all parts for my build. I'm off work next Tuesday so I've got til then to spend biting my finger nails

Can't wait Final spec is as follows:

NZXT Phantom in black
MSI P67A-GD65 (B3) iP67 Socket 1155 8 Channel Audio ATX Motherboard
Intel Core i5 2500K 3.3GHz Socket 1155 6MB Cache
Corsair 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 1600MHz/PC3-12800 XMS3 i5 Memory Kit CL9
MSI ATI Radeon HD 6950 OC Twin FrozR III Power Edition 2048MB GDDR5
Corsair Hydro Series H60 High Performance Liquid CPU Cooler
LiteOn IHAS324 24x DVD±RW DL & RAM SATA Optical Drive
Samsung SpinPoint F3 1TB SATA-II 32MB Cache

Nice bits of kit The Phantom seems to be a marmite case. Let us know how it all goes.

I will do. I love my Phantom, probably more than my wife & kids

Buy everything at once.

• Less delivery charges.
• Get the latest gear, if you bought a CPU/Board and RAM now, by the time you have purchased your last part to complete your build, there will be something newer out and then you will be kicking yourself.

so so true, after all.. If you save to buy it all at once, they're more chance the components you want have gone down in £.

Did you get the free coolermaster Hyper212 heatsink with the motherboard? sell it for profit

Don't buy if it's gonna sit there unused for a while. If you gonna use it for a benefit straight away, then why not. You do loose on shipping costs, but win on weekly offers. so it's a balancing act. If you can wait then it's best.
