Budget: £700
Purpose: Gaming and home computing
Heres what I was thinking of purchasing....
Corsair HX 520W ATX2.2 Modular SLI Compliant PSU (CMPSU-520HXUK)(£72.84) £61.99
Intel Core 2 DUO LGA775 E6600 2.40GHz Retail / Asus P5B / 2GB GeIL PC2-6400C4 DDR2 Dual Channel Kit - Bundle (£421.79) £358.97
BFG GeForce 8800 GTS OC 320MB GDDR3 HDTV/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail (£199.74) £169.99
Sub Total : £590.95
Shipping : £8.95
Vat : £104.98 ]
Now I dont know whether to go with this hardware setup, or wait to see what ATI bring. The problem i forsee is i cant really afford a graphics card over £200 and i sincerely doubt when the R600 is released any of the cards will be at that price point, but then my 9800 Pro has lasted well (it even runs Supreme Commander demo okay).
Help make my mind up please
