Hey guys, another spec me thread.
Little brother's turning 18 and i want to get him most of a computer. we can salvage hdd and dvd drive. What i'll need is:
case
mobo
cpu
ram
psu
i literally want to spend as little as possible whilst sticking to intel. absolute maximum i wish to spend is £250 on the above.
So far i've come up with:
Intel Core i3-4130 3.40GHz (Haswell) Socket LGA1150 Processor - Retail
Gigabyte H81M-S2PV Intel H81 (Socket 1150) DDR3 Micro ATX Motherboard
Corsair Builder Series CX 430w Modular '80 Plus Bronze' Power Supply (CP-9020058-UK)
TeamGroup Elite 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C11 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit (TED34GM1600HC11DC01)
BitFenix Comrade Midi-Tower - Black
Total price of the above is £236.41 inc p+p
want to buy this pretty soon, and the psu is out of stock, rather not shop from different stores to save on p+p, can travel to ocuk if required, only 30 mins up the road.
really don't want to scrimp on the psu, always loved corsair, and being out of the scene for a while, no idea which psu's are 'decent' would an EVGA psu be a good alternative?
PC gernerally going to be used for gaming, mostly WoW, but other games are played.
Lastly: spec me a gfx card to go with this - what could the psu's generally handle, i assume somethign like a 760ti would be fine?
Cheers!
