Hi all,
First post, and first time pc builder, im planning on putting a gaming machine together when i get paid end of this month and was hoping for some comments on my spec choices, will be gaming on a 24" monitor -
GeForce GTX 295 1792MB GDDR3 TV-Out/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail (BFGRGTX2951792E) £379.99
Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 LGA775 'Yorkfield' 2.83GHz 12MB-cache (1333FSB) Processor - Retail £239.99
OCZ Solid Series 60GB 2.5" SATA-II Solid State Hard Drive (OCZSSD2-1SLD60G) £119.99
Asus P5Q Pro Intel P45 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard £91.99
Hiper Anubis Midi Tower Case - Black (No PSU) £79.99
Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 64-Bit - OEM (66I-01939) £76.99
OCZ ModXStream Pro 700w Silent SLI Ready ATX2 Modular Power Supply £66.99
Samsung SpinPoint F1 750GB SATA-II 32MB Cache - OEM (HD753LJ) £54.99
OCZ 4GB (2x2GB) PC2-8500C5 1066MHz Dual Channel Platinum Series DDR2 (OCZ2P10664GK) £53.99
Noctua NH-U12P CPU Cooler (Socket AM2/LGA775) £41.99
Roccat Kone Gaming Mouse £41.99
Saitek Eclipse 2 Illuminated Keyboard - Blue/Red/Purple £26.99
Pioneer DVR-216DBK 20x DVD±RW SATA Dual Layer ReWriter (Black) - OEM £16.99
Sub Total : £1,292.87 + VAT
I have never oc'd before but i plan to hopefully the mobo/cpu and cooler are a good choice.
And the 60gig ssd for the os and wow and the other hd for data and what not. Wasnt sure about I7, certainly bumps the price up with memory and mobo costs, max budget is £1500.
Comment and suggestions greatly appreciated
