Cheap PC

[stulid]

A few things dude,

• The Seagate Barracuda 1TB drive is a few £ less.

• Fast RAN and H81 chipset board doesn't work, it only supports upto 1600Mhz probably, so get slower cheaper stuff.

• An Antec One is a better case - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-178-AN&groupid=2362&catid=160

• Kingston changed the flash memory used in the V300 so the retail items are nothing like the samples that have been reviewed.

Thanks for the reply.

I don't want to spend loads on an ssd as I am trying to keep the price as low as I can .I don't need the best there is but an improvement over a hard drive.
The person has said that they want the case that I suggested.

Thanks for the reply

Ok, but about the case, you are spending £4-5 on an extra fan when cases like the Antec come with two as standard.

Is there another 60gb ssd that is better for around the same price?

 

[stulid]

The Corsair Force LS but it is out of stock.

The Sandisk Pulse looks like a terrible SSD.

P.S your PSU question, yeah that one will power either of those two specs without a hiccup.

Thanks for the suggestion but its a little expensive for the person, the one I speced is more than enough for them.
