Hi
A friend wants a new PC and asked me for a spec with a budget of £500.
He uses it for movies, games, web browsing and web developing.
He doesn't need monitor, mouse, keyboard or OS.
Here is what I have:
YOUR BASKET
1 x Intel Core i5-2500K 3.30GHz (Sandybridge) Socket LGA1155 Processor - Retail £139.99
1 x Gigabyte Z68AP-D3 Intel Z68 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard £68.32
1 x Western Digital Caviar Blue 500GB SATA 6Gb/s 16MB Cache - OEM (WD5000AAKX) £66.66
1 x Corsair Builder Series CX 600W V2 '80 Plus' Power Supply (CMPSU-600CXUKV2) £49.99
1 x Asus ATI Radeon HD 6670 1024MB GDDR3 PCI-Express Graphics Card £49.99
1 x Antec 300 Three Hundred Ultimate Gaming Case - Black £35.82
1 x Corsair XMS3 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit (CMX4GX3M2A1600C9) £24.99
1 x Samsung SH-S222AL/BEBE 22x DVD±RW SATA Lightscribe ReWriter (Black) - OEM £15.82
Total : £556.90 (includes shipping : £12.50).
It's over the budget but he may be ok with that. Didn't realised that HDD's went up a lot.
Let me know if there's anything wrong and if it can be improved please.
Thanks
Anthony
