Hi

I need to buy a new workstation asap & wondered if any of you might be able to give me some advice.

I was looking at the bundle in this link

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/productlist.php?groupid=43&catid=2051

I need it only for work, no gaming so onboard graphics would do fine.

I run a lot of apps at once, using a lot of RAM & CPU so 16GB a must

I dont need a large amount of HD space just needs to be quick so a SSD would be good. I have Larger drives for storage.

Im looking around £800-£900 with room to move if needed.

No OS needed, will need a case, nothing fancy just good cooling and plenty of room and PSU.

Any help is much appreciated, need to order asap.

Thank guys
 
You would probably be better off buying each component on it's own. It will cost you around 525 pounds. You can then overclock it yourself.

The motherboard has support for Ivybridge processors coming out next year.

Don't know much about the PSU. Maybe someone will correct me.

You will need to buy 2 of the ram, I was having problems buying 2 because there is some special offer. This RAM is also good - Kingston HyperX
 
Thanks for taking the time to spec that for me CreMafia, much appreciated!

I will have a good look over that tomorrow and look at placing my order

Thanks
 
Okay so im going to make an order in my lunch break today, so if there's anything anyone thinks may be good to add or change for any reason please let me know.

Thanks for all you help
 
Fan is out of stock

1 x Thermalright Silver Arrow CPU Cooler (Socket LGA1366/LGA1155/LGA1156/LGA775/AM2/AM3) £50.99

Any sub for this or would i be advised to wait?

Thanks
 
Still got this in my basket lol

Can anyone give me an opinion on if the PSU is overkill for this? And are there any cheaper cases that will do the job?

I wont be adding any graphics cards to this, and i know they are the main power eater.

Thanks
