Hello
!
Hi ,
I posted in the "spec me a PC" but I think because its quite long no body bothers replying so I thought if its ok I make a thread to make things easier/cleaner. This is my first topic you guys seem like a friendly bunch so here it goes
.
Buget £400
Processor
ref.Intel or AMD.
Motherboard:Yes
Memory:4GB
Graphics Card(s):Optimum based on CPU + Budget (pref nVida).
TV Card:Nope
Hard Drive(s):Yes
Optical Drive(s):No will salvage from Dell Dimension 3100 would that work ?
Cooling:No intention of overclocking.
Water Cooling:No.
Cable(s)don't think I would need any?
Sound Card:If within the budget then yes .
Controller Card(s):If motherboard has PCI-E then yes if not i'll go for a PCI X16 anything PCI don't like USB wireless cards I find them unstable.
Case:Yes
Power Supply:Yes/Optimum
Keyboard:No
Mouse:No
Headset:No
Speakers:Yes
Monitor(s):19"
Uses:
FS2004/FSX (flight simulator) - medium high not too bothered. DVD's music.
Thanks guys .
This will be the first time building so any tips for a rookie will be using anti-static ristbands although there are many who say its not necessary I just wear them for good practice ( done the odd PCI card change ).
