The top one on the list, its on this week only too.

I mean to be honest, it will run games on high for atleast 6 months. You can then start saving money (as you already have) to get a nice DX10 card..a few months after they are out (better generation stuff) and then you have a kickass set up with the rig you're going to buy.

Okey and what about the RAM? killer_uk said it might not work on that motherboard? I checked the memory listings (See when you click 'Product description' on the product at OcUK) and it doesnt list the memory in it.

Well to be honest, im not 100% sure, im pretty sure its fine because a lot of specs have had that RAM. Maybe ask in the RAM section asking about it because im not a 100% sure.

Although i do think it will be fine as its not listed.

You taking the X1800XT then?

That is way overpriced for a 7800GTX 512mb, they are old now, you can gt a 7900GTX for the same price which is miles better!

Good Choice with the X1800XT though, would have gone for the X1900 myself but each to there own! :p

TP should come with the CPU solong as it is a retail one, in most cases when I had retail ones it eas pre-applied to the cooler. If you are getting an aftermarket cooler that should come with some anyways.

The X1800XT is only on offer either till tomorrow or till Friday if I'm right, sure that the OcUK week on offers changes on Thursdays so you gotta be quick to snap up the bargin...admitidly it's a bargin at the normal price too :p

Will XP Pro work with the dual core?
Also if I purchase all the stuff off OcUK, tonight, when will I get it?

The artic freezer 7 pro has some MX1 thermal paste applied, and its as good as if not slightly better than artic silver.

XP Pro will work fine with dual core.

If you order tonight and everything is in stock it will most likely be packed tommorow and so there is a very good chance it will be with you friday. :)
