Final build, check

IndexRated · 25 Jul 2011 at 11:27

Right, I'm amount to order this today, as said before, first build. I got carried away for a while with the idea of a GTX 560Ti, but settled with the more modest GTX 460 Hawk, and this is what I've settled on after readdressing budget, et cetera.

Any blaringly obvious mistakes, everything will play nicely together?

PSU needed to have 2 x 6 PCIe power connectors for the graphics card, the modular OCZ bumped up delivery too much for me, and I overlooked the OcUK modular for the BeQuiet! I can cable tie.

Motherboard is bog standard, and I'm fine with that. Won't do Sli, no 6GB/s Sata, USB 3.0, et cetera.

Extremely nervous, but I guess there's a first time for everything.

Do you have a dvd-rw ?

Yes, pulled from the previous system, and a hard drive. Monitor, speakers and O/S from the previous system too.

Nah, I've never touched an IDE cable ever, just looked rather bamboozled at them, so definitely Sata. It's a Samsung Spinspoint F3, so 3GB/s Sata 2.
