Hi guys after your thoughts on this one. I've had it saved in my basket for a little while and can't really see much more ways of squeezing anything else in to it, or getting anything more out of it. So your help will be greatly appreciated. It will be mainly for gaming playing the likes of Archage etc on my Samsung LED37" TV.
I have gone with the CPU/mobo bundle as it's the CPU I want also the MSI board as the wifi which is a massive bonus for LAN. The cosair case is a MUST because it will fit on my tv stand on one of the compartments. Also I know I can save some money on going with a after market cooler but I thought h100i might be better as it's in a enclosed space so it will help keep it cooler? (Front and back of the compartment are open for air flow, sides will be limited by the structure of the stand) I also require windows as I'm currently running vista. Also chose the samsung evo and it pretty much smashes everything in its reviews I've seen online.
I have mouse etc etc so it's literally everything for inside the case. I'd consider AMD route if it meant some upgrades in other areas but they tend to run hotter and I'd be worried about that in a small case?
Thanks for your input guys, your the best
