Hi everyone, well basically I have half of my pc already however I just need to get some extra components to have my final project!

I already have:

Raptor 74gb hdd
Antec 900 Case
Corsair 650w
Dvd Drive

Sorry for no the specific names :P

Right basically I have a budget of £500 a little more wont matter but only a little :)

Here is what I have got so far, if anyone knows of any different components I could take please do feel free to give advice and/or different builds I could buy, I just want the best what I can buy for the budget as everyone does!

Thank you for reading
 
Hey,

Thanks for the reply and yes I do play a lot of games, but mainly Counter Strike Source and there is a lot of problems with ATI cards and that game, but only due to the detail of the new ATI cards i.e. dark spots are VERY dark. However there are also in-game commans to alter this too.

I would much prefer ATI or Nvidia but it's definately what I'm going to be looking into a little more with the CSS thing.
 
Hey everyone,

Thanks for all the response, what I have found out so far that is I should go to either 4850/70, change mobo or upgrade and RAM depending on the mobo choice. Looking into some new components then :)
 
Awesome thank you will,

Looked into the spec you gave me, I couldn't believe the price which I saw :O, however then I noticed for some reason the Q6600 you linked was a different price to what I'm seeing it as O.o, but great upgrade on mobo :) glad you guys told me about the pro version, thanks and I'm still looking into this!

Expect a new post of new hardware questions soon
 
Hey again guys,

Well I looked into people's comments and remarks and now I have come up with a new set-up, what do you think about this now people? Gone a little over budget but I can handle that :).

Hey people, I'm back!

I will now be officially ordering my PC end of the week and this is what my final set-up is going to be :).

I think everything is compatible according to all of your very helpful advice and I should have a semi-decent rig :).
