Sorry to ask again mate but do you think i would be better buying a monitor as well would i still be able to use HD graphics ?

no its fine

i would keep and use your monitor to be honest, but as its a massive size you need a good ammount of dedicated graphics memory, hence why i chose the 4850x2 as it has 1gig of graphics memory

ANGERFIST · 2 Feb 2009 at 23:02

Nice one mate Cheers For that both specs where good but i think am going to go with Kenny's when i get paid Cheers Mate

Amnesia · 2 Feb 2009 at 23:09

he hasnt said what resolution the t.v is, it might not be 1920.
also i would probably go for 1tb samsung and spend only half as much on memory.
i would probably stick to a single 4850 or a 1gb 4870 if the hdtv supports 1920.
tbh i would probably make 1 or 2 other changes but i dont do spec me's.
i really shouldnt be here should i

Very similar specs to be honest, just have to get the motherboard, cpu and ram combo correct for your individual needs (and monitor lol)

anytime mate, keep us posted on how things go

Awesome, should be good to see the case fully loaded mate, will be one hell of a pc you will have on your hands, will you be overclocking or benchmarking it at all.?

ANGERFIST · 2 Feb 2009 at 23:18
