Hi guys n girls,
New year new project from me, i've been thinking of making a new PC that will work as a HTPC, but also one powerful enough to play games on that is a little more portable than my desktop PC (see link to that in my sig)!
The specification is as follows.....
YOUR BASKET
1 x Gigabyte Z97N-Gaming 5 Intel Z97 (Socket 1150) DDR3 Mini ITX Motherboard £118.99
1 x Lian Li PC-Q36WA Mini-ITX Case - Black Window £104.99
1 x Corsair RM Series RM 550 '80+ Gold' 550W Power Supply (CP-9020053-UK) £83.99
1 x Avexir Core Red Series 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-17200C11 2133MHz Dual Channel Memory Kit (AVD3U21331104G-2CIR) - Red Light £65.99
1 x Intel Pentium K Anniversary G3258 Socket LGA1150 Processor - Retail £57.59
1 x Samsung Slimline Blu-Ray 6x BDRW / 8x DVDRW - (SN-506BB/BEBE) £49.99
2 x Kingston 120GB SSDNow V300 Drive SATA 6Gb/s 3 2.5" (7mm height) Solid State Hard Drive - (SV300S37A/120G) £46.99 (£93.98)
Total : £589.62 (includes shipping : £11.75).
I haven't yet decided on the graphics card yet, as this will be a slow project it might change although i'm looking at a 960 as and when they are announced.
I do plan on modifying the PSU cables, which i will show the progress on as and when the parts arrive over the next coming months.
Looking forward to seeing the Lian Li case, never worked with one before!!
