ok i took my pc to be looked at today. the psu is shot and is tempremental and the mobo needs reflashing and is intermient with booting so i have to buy some new kirt tommorrow before i get back to uni...

what i am currently thinking....

OcUK Huntkey 500W PSU OcUK Huntkey 500W PSU
Asus P5KC Combo Intel P35 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 & DDR3 Motherboard
Intel Core 2 Quad Pro Q6600 "Energy Efficient 95W Edition" 2.40GHz
2 x OcUK 2GB (2x1GB) DDR2 PC2-8500C5 1066MHz Dual Channel Kit

leaves me able to upgrade to ddr3 and will be vista able and gives me enough ram to whip my cad and geo software for uni :)

responses would greatly be appreciated by lunch tommorrow so i can order it for delivery on friday :)
 
Without a budget, how's this look?

It's a much better PSU and a highly rated mobo. The memory is a little more appropriate since that CPU's got a relatively high multiplier.
 
thats ok but really want pc8500 and i need 4gb for my uni apps :) i like that power supply though. budget is under 400 inc vat as i can get that back. deffintley no more.
 
ok all up and running... as usual i did something stupid... forgot to add the 4 pin power adaptor to the main adaptor.

the gfx card would not fit in the case so after some modifying it did ;)

windows doesnt like to install with 4gb of ram so i had to take 1gb out.. install vista 64bit and then added the 1gb afterwards :)

i will do some tests soon.... everything is 5.9 except my hard drives which are 5.3 because i did not raid them...250gb x 2 sata drives.
