Hi,
I am currently building a new system, I want it to be fairly powerful, but dont really want it to be more than £450, I have listed the hardware below, If anyone thinks one component may be too powerful, or over the top please say so I can get the price down.
Leadtek GeForce 8800 GT 256MB GDDR3 HDTV/Dual DVI (PCI-Express)
Intel Core 2 Duo E8200 LGA775 'Wolfdale' 2.66GHz (1333FSB)
Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3L Intel P35 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard
GeIL 2GB (2x1GB) PC2-6400C5 800MHz Value DDR2 Dual Channel Kit (GX22GB6400DC)
Hitachi Deskstar T7K500 250GB SATA-II 8MB Cache - OEM (0A33423)
Samsung SH-S203D 20x DVD±RW SATA Dual Layer ReWriter (Black) - OEM
I was going to go for the Core 2 Duo 6750, but the 8200 was only about £10 more, so thought it would be worth it. Let me know what you think.
Thanks
