With some help, I've put together this spec. Does anyone have any reccomendations on how I could improve it? I've got about £70 more that I can throw into it, but I don't know where I should put it, or what to get when I experiment putting it towards something (badly written I know).
Okay, so the spec so far is:
Asus ATI Radeon HD 4890 1GB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card £164.99
AMD Phenom II X3 Tri Core 720 Black Edition 2.8GHz (Socket AM3) - Retail £120.74
Gigabyte GA-MA790XT-UD4P (Socket AM3) PCI-Express DDR3 Motherboard £114.99
OCZ ModXStream Pro 600w Silent SLI Ready ATX2 Modular Power Supply £72.99
Corsair XMS3 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 10666C9 1333MHz TwinX Dual Channel (TW3X4G1333C9) £59.49
Western Digital Caviar Black 500GB SATA-II 32MB Cache - OEM (WD5001AALS) £48.99
Antec 300 Three Hundred Ultimate Gaming Case - Black (No PSU) £44.99
Sunbeam Core Contact Freezer CPU Cooler (Socket 754/939/940/AM2/AM3/LGA775) £28.99
Pioneer DVR-216DBK 20x DVD±RW SATA Dual Layer ReWriter (Black) - OEM £16.99
If you think I can save money in some areas to add more to my extra bit of cash, by all means do so (particularly in the case department, I have no problem in getting a cheaper case). Also, I'm not the most knowledgable about computers, so please make sure it is all compatible.
I plan to game on a 1920X1080 resolution if you want to put the money into graphics. And yes, the PC is mainly for gaming. Help me out =)
