Hey guys New to forums and new to gaming spec's.
Would some one mind helping me out here ?
Budget is £1500 if i can stretch i will but it would have to be worth it...

Been playing around with Amd and ati seem's a major price cut from Nvida and intel trouble is i still end up closer to £2000 which considering im looking on installments it's to expensive !

Ideally would like the Ati 5970 in the build and a decent amount of Ram as i play around with 3d software aswell as gaming.

Camon guys Nooblet out !

cheers :)
 
A little over budget : Total : £1,649.04 inc VAT and delivery.

I don't particuarly think that SolidState drives are good value at the moment...

As above, do you need everything, OS, monitor, keyboard, mouse etc. Also, do you really need a 5970? It's a ridiculously expensive card, although the fastest you can get, why not just go for a 5850 just now. If that doesn't turn out to be fast enough for ya, get another in crossfire later on.
 
Do you need a monitor (if yes, how big can you go!), case, keyboard, mouse?

Would love a 24 / 30 inch monitor but imagine it would sky rocket my budget !

Got my eye on Zalman GT900 case

logitech Game board / Razor naga Mmo mouse ;)
but accesories can be held off the sytsem is most important for me

Im surviving on an Imax currently
it just does not cut for the games i play..

5870 will be more than enough, and the GT900 case is ludicrously overpriced, really wouldnt bother.
