Hi All!
I’m new to this forum and I haven’t built anything myself for a few years – I’ll need your advice, please.
I’d like to build a PC for gaming and general use. One of the main requirements – it must be really quiet. Here is what I came up with so far:

87664006.jpg


My budget is around 850 – 900.
I need your advise on the PSU and Case please. 5870 must fit in and the whole system must be as quiet as possible.
I welcome any suggestions on my current configuration.
PS. I don’t have much storage at the moment – I’m planning to add a bigger HDD later on.
PPS. The Case must have such dimensions (or lower) H520*W250*D470
Thanks in advance!

with that budget you could get a cm 690 ii and a 1tb hdd , both of these from ocuk and then you could probally get a cheap 800-1000watt psu of ebay :) good luck with build

Hi...if u wanna go for a gaming pc I would defenatelly go 4 AMD with ATI card in it...Or get Intel and nvidia..The are made for each other...in a real world u dont really need 1000W psu if u r not running 2 graphics in crossfire or SLI..Might wanna consider watercooling too if u wanna have a quiet machine...with fans fitted to gaming cases will make it all louder with no doubt...hope it helps
