As I have purchased Warhammer online, I am in need of a system that can play it. Currently Iam running an older socket 939 4200x2, sadly this only has DDR1 a 1950pro. It doesnt quite run the game at its best.
However at the moment I am not in the postition where I can purchase a whole system at a time. My major letdown of the system I have right now I believe is the graphics, So I have purchased the 8800 on the deal of the week. Even though this has 256MB, is will still run faster + Direct x 10.
I plan in the next couple of months to start buying components, I am going to leave the core parts till last. Next month I am toying with the idea of a new case and possibly the PSU. My current system has a Hiper 580 Modular power supply, this one I had was a replacement from hiper as the first one failed, my brother had one fail - however this one has outlasted both originals. I dont know wither to change this ? Or reuse this part ? The output is fine just alittle concerned about new components.
I havent also made up my mind if I want to stick with AMD yet. I have always been an AMD builder, however the Nforce chipset on this ASUS Ive had had let me down alittle, I am considering an intel. I do not need an SLI / crossfire board, and do not want to pay much more than £100 for the board.
All in all, Id probably looking to spend no more than £400 spreadover the next two months, then I`ll be selling off the old bits to re-coupe some costs back.
Considering what I have said I would love someone in here to make some build suggestions for me.
Thank you in advance.
