definitely a better spec by RJC a more reliable, quality psu and and one of the better 6870s.

Nikumba · 14 Sep 2011 at 20:40

Cool, shame the CPU is out of stock at the moment

Jony27 · 14 Sep 2011 at 20:43

do you already have the mobo, as you cant overclock with a H67 board so you might aswell go for a non-K CPU.

Nikumba · 14 Sep 2011 at 20:46

@Jony27 - Dont have the mobo yet, but not over interested in overclocking, prefer a stable system

RJC · 14 Sep 2011 at 20:48

You could go with the OEM cpu, you loose the heatsink and 2 year warranty.

Like Jony27 mentions do you already have the motherboard and did you have budget in mind.

Edit: Seen your reply above.

Just looked at the PSU specced by RJC but looks like the HDD connectors are all bunded into the main loom and not modular, any other suggestions?

Not all the SATA/Molex connectors are hardwired to the PSU body, you have to use some after all.

Any idea how many are? As will only be running one HDD maybe a DVD drive

Kimbie

stulid · 15 Sep 2011 at 11:09

http://www.antec.com/pdf/manuals/TP-550_Manual_EN.pdf

24-pin (20+4) main connector
8-pin EPS12V
4-pin ATX12V
8-pin (6+2) PCI-E
3 x Molex + 1 x Floppy
3 x SATA

Thats what is hard wired.

Its a really good quality PSU made by Seasonic.

Also have you seen this? - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-143-OK - today only price or until stock runs out.

Nikumba · 15 Sep 2011 at 11:47

Had not seen the gfx card, will look now.

Shame its got molex and floppy power on it, might reuse my 530W corsair then out of my current PC

Kimbie

Nikumba · 15 Sep 2011 at 16:51

Had a bit of a tweak and a bonus in the paycheck, what peoples thoughts? still undecided on the PSU yet, I know RJC specced Win7 with the other HDD, but I am a fan of the WD blacks hence why it is seperate.

Though I was looking at this mother board Asus P8P67-M has it has 4 x DDR3 slots but its a P67 apposed to a H67 so not sure on the difference

Kimbie

stulid · 15 Sep 2011 at 16:58

You really want a P67 board so you can overclock,

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-448-AS

Are you limited to M-ATX board size?

And the HDD is expensive, you can get a really quick 1TB drive for less,

Nikumba · 15 Sep 2011 at 17:18

Yeah limited to m-atx due to the case I am getting

Always thought WD Blacks were the fastest mechanical drives you could get

Kimbie

They are, but you need a benchmark program to see the small difference, trust me, get a Barracuda 7200.12 or Samsung F3, they are snapping at the heals of the Blacks and are cheaper and as you can see you can get a 1TB drive.

OK then, theres also this - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-343-GI&groupid=701&catid=5&subcat=1990

But do get a P67 or Z68 board to get the overclock, four RAM slots, etc
