So I have some spare cash and thought I would make the most of OCUK's free delivery offer which ends tonight.

I'm looking to purchase the following:

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-053-CS

My current setup is:

FX4100
Gigabyte GA-880GM-USB3
Agility 3 90GB SSD
WD Green Caviar 750GB

My question is can anyone recommend the above or have had any bad experiences with the products just looking for some advisories really? :)
 
A low budget 500 Watt which came with a budget case and a HD5450.

Will that graphics card work with my mobo?

I'm sure I read from a thread on here that the TX550 was made by seasonic as well but I may be wrong. Would you say that a 550 watt is enough power for my setup plus 1 gfx card?

550w is plenty for your system however given the choice between the TX550M and the XFX 650W, I'd take the XFX.

It will give you plenty of headroom for future upgrades and at an extra £5(?) for 100w more power & the reputation of the XFX/seasonic brand theirs no reason not to go for it (unless tight budget)
 
Perfect, I'll go for the XFX then! Thanks for the help guys, prior to buying them I'm a bit confused on GFX card part.

My mobo has these expansion slots:

1 x PCI Express x16 slot, running at x16
1 x PCI Express x1 slot
(All PCI Express slots conform to PCI Express 2.0 standard.)
2 x PCI slots

May be a silly question but will that card work on my mobo even though the card states it is PCI Express 2.1?
