Hi guys,

Just after some advice and spec check. I'm planning a new build and plan to buy something like:

Core 2 6300 OEM
Freezer 7Pro
2Gig DDR2-800 (possibly Geil but unsure due to the current reliabity issues??)
MSI 7900GTO
New fast 250Gig HD
Decent mobo?

I currently have an old but trusty Enermax 460w PSU. Will this do the business with a couple of converters? it has the old 20 pin and 4 pin connectors and no PCIE type connector??

Any thoughts on the Geil ram? really can't spend any more on ram as it's all gonna be burning plastic??

Anyone recommend a mobo? Obviously the Gigab's a supposed to be quite good but I'm really not upto date at the moment?

Anyone recommend a nice fast 250Gig HD as I want to replace the raptor with something a little more stealthy?

MAny thanks, guys for your comments and yes, I do fully intent to OC. It would be rude not to :cool:

Looks like you have a bit more budget than me Adam and need less parts

Can anyone recommend some economy RAM, a good mobo and fast HD?

Anyone know if my Enermax will be anygood?
