Hey there, I'm putting together a PC that i can carry around reasonably for moving/LANs. Can you see anything wrong or to be improved with this?
The PC will be used for uni work and gaming, biggest concern i'm aware of is over drive space/speed/life if i were to uninstall games often. I want to create at least 1 PC that doesn't give me a nasty surprise before completion
. Some guidance would be really helpful.
Oh, and I was also wondering about DVD drives, will a USB one be alright for installing Windows or will i need to get a slim drive for the case?
