Hi,
Although I work as an IT techie, I have little interest in the latest hardware etc so when it comes to choosing hardware for builds im a bit of noob.
I very rarely game but would still like a reasonably decent graphics card for the odd occasion that I do. I run a fair amount of virtual machines/router simulations for Cisco studies. I don't really need any large storage on the computer as my media is all stored on a separate server.
I'd like an SSD main drive (or if the budget allows maybe 2 in a RAID 0 config).
I currently have an Antec 300 case and don't mind getting another, but if there's anything else around the same price im open to suggestions. Preferably fairly quiet as its often left running overnight, as long as its not really loud this isn't a huge issue.
Budget around £1000 for the base unit excluding the OS.
I'd also like 2 x 24" monitors for up to £400 if you have any suggestions on which ones to get.
Thanks for any suggestions.
