Compact PC spec

Lufbra-Dan · 18 Mar 2009 at 14:34

Following on from my previous threads, I have come to the conclusion that a new PC is the way forward. However, due to a severe lack of space, a full tower is out of the question, so have decided to go for the Lian-Li V350B Aluminium Mini-Tower.

Below is what I have currently settled on:

I plan on using at least a 22" monitor, preferably the LG M2294D 22" Widescreen LCD Freeview Monitor since there is no chance of having a separate TV and monitor, plus the added inputs allow me to plug in my PS3 also.

I am not a massive gamer, I tend to play games from when I was younger sunch as Rollercoaster Tycoon and Simcity, so was wondering whether the graphics card I have specified is a slightly overkill.

Any suggestions welcome on improvements, hardware conflicts etc. Also my budget is £600 max.

tha card is over kill for those games but in that sence allows you some expantion on new gqmes you never know when something might come that you like. IMO buy mate

My main concern was if I was to purchase a bigger monitor, such as a 27", whether a card like a 3450 would be sufficient

Keep the 4670, the power increase you get relative to less expensive models is great.

You could add a videocard later, and use the 780G's integrated chip for the time being. I'm sure it won't be taxed by games like Simcity..

Anyone had any experience of the Wireless Adapter I have there?

I heard Belkins arent that great, so i went for the one I have.

Are there any better ones supplied by OCUK?
