My 10 yr old girl spends quite a bit of time using my pc for things like youtube, flash games and homework as well as general browsing so going to build something for xmas.
I have a spare A10 5800k and mAtx mobo.
Need ram, case and PSU.
As my own system seems to be needing more than 8GB ram I thought about pulling the ram out of my PC and using that, then buying a 16GB dual channel kit for mine and found this https://www.overclockers.co.uk/crucial-ballistix-sport-16gb-2x8gb-ddr3-pc3-12800c9-1600mhz-dual-channel-kit-bls2cp8g3d1609ds1s00-my-173-cr.html here...wondered if it would have any impact over more expensive ram.
For the new build I want to go mitx really but going to use what I have.
Thought about getting myself a better PSU and putting the little corsair 430w in the new build as it is well sufficient for that.
Thoughts...?
