Hi there, a mate of mine has spec'd himself up a new pc. Can anyone tell me of any mistakes or possible compatability issues with it please?
Here it is:
Case: Akasa AK-ZEN-01-BK Zen Black Case
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA_965P_DS3 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2
Cpu: Intel Core 2 DUO E6600 "LGA775 Conroe" 2.40GHz (1066FSB)
Cpu cooler: Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro CPU Cooler
Ram: GeIL 2GB (2x1GB) PC6400C5 800MHz Value DDR2 Dual Channel Kit
Graphics: BFG GeForce 8800 GTS OC 320MB GDDR3 HDTV/Dual DVI
PSU: OCZ ModStream 520w ATX2.2 Power Supply
HDD: Samsung SpinPoint T HD400LJ 400GB SATA-II 8MB Cache
Total price for the above is about £785inc Vat
I know he could get a cheaper cpu and clock it up but he doesn't overclock at the moment, so he's set on the 6600.
Is there anything out of place or does that all look ok? I cant see anything that sticks out as being incompatable, but then I'm no expert!!
Many thanks for any input.
EDIT: hdd now changed to: Western Digital Caviar SE16 400GB 4000KS SATA-II 16MB Cache
