New to this site and found it very good already so thanks.
So as you can see from my sig ,my rig is now ancient. 2007 was a good year!
I have a computer room again and want to update and play some games Witcher 3, battlefront, Elite but heck my rig don't run nothing anymore.
I reckon the only salvageable bits are the 500Gb SSD, HDD and the DVD RW.
I was thinking something on the lines of
My basket at Overclockers UK:
Total: £720.00
will need a case that it will fit in, nothing fancy, as it sits under the desk and a PSU, also is the water cooling overkill? have always OC'd CPU and thought I might need it.
If you can see any way to shave a few pounds off the price that would not go amiss either as I have been looking at those gaming chairs
thanks
