Thte spec is ok and fits

The RAM and PSU can be changed if you wanted, but I suppose they will "look" ok.

I'm keeping Corsair, I'm going for Corsair LP 4GB for 24GBP from OCUKs greatest rival but its ok cause if they do go wrong I'll go straight to Corsair. I'm going for the LPs so I can get a fan at a later date. Anyone wanna links me to a black and redish gfx card?

Top one looks sexy but expensive the second is nice, but not very upto date.

Hyburnate · 7 Oct 2011 at 20:46

Stulid, what you think about me going BD?

Hyburnate · 8 Oct 2011 at 16:52

Scrap that, no need ;D
I'll be buying soon. Still not sure on a gfx card.

Certainly GTAIV, BF3, well the games not released yet in its full/completed form.

But medium settings with a smooth frame rate will be my guess after playing the beta.

Hyburnate · 9 Oct 2011 at 17:27

Lovely, might even grab another later down the line and go Crossfire. ;D End of thread until built.

Why bother with a theme while only spending 1k.

You could get a better machine buy ditching the colour scheme.

Its like saying ooo look at my £300 water cooling in my £300 pc....

Drop the colour idea, build yourself a better computer, then when you have more money, care then....

I tried

but it fell on deaf ears. Very stubborn this one. Even getting him to change motherboard was a tour of duty.

Hyburnate · 9 Oct 2011 at 18:14

Stubborn is my middle name

.

I'm not moving on the colour scheme, its very important for me, I loooove red and black and it the computer will make my room complete.

You think a girl is going to be impressed by the colours.

ooo its red. that was £1000 well spent :rolleyes:

Much rather have a better pc, and care about the looks when i have more money.

Like i need some extensions to make my pc look better, but priority's come first.

Also £1000 pc with a 6870 is just lol worthy.

I see where your coming from, but tbh, I'm not a heavy gamer aslong as I can play games, it doesn't mater to me if I don't get 90FPS on Ultra settings, if I become one and I need it badly I'll get a 7xxx series

But watercooling is next on my list

red fluid to be exact, your going to love my CD Drive, I ruined 2 paving slabs doing it tho,

Hope you mean DVD drive as the windows disk comes on DVD.
