Hi,

I'm looking to build a trading pc that will power up 3 screens. This will be used strictly for trading and the odd internet browsing. I'm come up with the following specs. Please let me know if they seem sufficient.


AMD A10-5800K Black Edition 3.80GHz (Socket FM2) APU Trinity Quad Core Processor (AD580KWOHJBOX) £99.95

MSI A85XA-G65 AMD A85X Chipset (Socket FM2) DDR3 ATX Motherboard £85.99

Corsair Force Series 3 120GB SATA 2.5" 6Gb/s Solid State Drive (CSSD-F120GB3A-B) £85.99

Samsung Green (MV-3V4G3D/US) 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C11 1600MHz 30nm Dual Channel Kit £49.99

Corsair Builder Series CX 500W V2 '80 Plus Bronze' Power Supply (CP-9020047-UK) £49.99

Aerocool Qs-200 Lite Midi Tower Case - Black £34.99

thanks for your time
 
looking to get a few 2nd hand ex office monitors probably all 19inches.

from what i was told its easily possible to overclock this ram..

hmmm, will the graphics card on the APU be more than sufficient to power the 3 monitors..?

thanks
 
from what i've read online it should power up 3 monitors
'Up to three monitors can be driven at a time, but do note, due to limitations, the HDMI and Display Ports cannot be used simultaneously'

and by taking that into consideration i'm guessing the screens will need to be one of each of the following: HDMI, VGA, DVI

i thought that overclocking the RAM slightly can give me a slight increase in speed without destabilising the system due to the RAM being very good. could be wrong.

thanks
 
sorry for bumping this up. i'm ordering this setup later on today and just wanted some reassurance that it was the best possible setup for the price for my planned usage. any information would be greatly appreciated

thanks in advance
