Spec for 1k.

Neoni · 14 Jul 2007 at 01:23

No case.

No Monitors.

No Keyboard.

No Mouse.

No Speakers.

Just internals

1k, for gaming!

-Thankyou. Something that would run, UT3 Nicely, if possible!

Also if you can spec me a HSF, and any other cooling, i have a pci card fan, and also some akasa ambers. and a Akasa Eclipse case

HDD wise i have two IDE's that make up 1/2 TB, so a raptor?

Software wise, i need Vista too in there

go with one then!

i say 1k, if u can make it cheaper, then go ahead!

if you want to save money you can drop to 2gb of ram, drop the sound card as onboard works, change cpu to a cheaper one but these are elegedly all gonna be good stepping if you are an overclocker

Looks good, i already have a sound blaster card? could i just use that?

Cupra · 14 Jul 2007 at 01:34

yeah, have you looked on mm for parts there can be a good saving there m8

prefer all new stuff, i can always transfer stuff outta this machine

sound cards etc not performance stuff.

Reckon it would play ut3 nicely?

Cupra · 14 Jul 2007 at 01:36

forgot to add a 520w psu would be good enough i speced that as it will be more future proof for the sake of a few quid. nobody knows really to be more sure get this m8

you could add more ram later if you wanted

Ultra is a waste of money, got you quad core, or you could probably get core 2 duo and 4gig of ram, your choice tbh.

For gaming i reckon its better to get 4GB of RAM than a Quad Core with a budget of 1k seeing as RAM is so cheap, so something like a high end duel core, 4gb RAM & a GTX.
