£200 to spend

Minibiker · 5 Jul 2017 at 17:46

Hi all

Got £200 to spend on the current build I'm doing, its only a budget build for the wife

Was thinking of getting these parts to get it up and running fully...

My basket at Overclockers UK:

1 x be quiet! Pure Power 10 400W CM 80 Plus Silver Modular Power Supply= £64.99
1 x Microsoft Windows 10 32/64-Bit - USB Pen Drive - Retail (KW9-00017)= £104.99

Total: £169.98
(includes shipping: £0.00)

[/INDENT

Then all I will need with the spare £30 quid is a SSD to install Windows on

Any opinions

I'd probably get a smarter cpu cooler.

I'm in need of Windows as want to get it fully running for the missus this weekend... I may get a small 60GB ssd for Windows... I may shop around for a copy of windows

Think i would spend a bit more on the psu and cover future cpu/gpu upgrades, the be quiet only has a 3 year warranty.

7 year warranty.

My basket at Overclockers UK:

1 x Bitfenix Whisper M Series 550W 80 Plus Gold Modular Power Supply= £78.95

Sounds good to me... I will order that PSU, Windows and SSD tonight hopefully for £200ish

Depends on what price I can find a Windows usb for but that would be ideal... and look great in my White Source 340 case
