Spec Check and PSU recommendation.

Finally made my mind up.

Ordered Q9550 OEM for just over £200

MSI P45 Neo 3 FR (bit of a gamble but I've always got along well with MSI and it was £25 cheaper than the Asus)

4Gb OCZ Reaper (8500)

I went with the Arctic cooler in the end because I know it will fit with the odd reaper heatsinks and it was £17ish.

All in all £380, not bad considering I never keep to my budget. I'm gonna cross my fingers and hope my Tagan 480 holds out. I'm running 3 hard drives a PCI soundcard, 1 optical drive and a 9600GT.

Fingers crossed but I can't see it being a problem.
 
Awesome, Awesome chip, sitting happily at 3.4Ghz, stock volts.

Stress testing as I type without even breaking a sweat :)

PSU is doing' it's thing quite nicely.

Thanks again for the help guys:cool:
