Basically I've been very lazy and complacent and after building my own rig about 5 years ago and not paying any attention to changes in hardware since I figured I'd chuck together a new one. Nice cheap bundle, cheap HD graphics card and a new 1080 monitor, if I did it 5 years ago, surely nothings changed!!
Wrong!!
For a start I've ordered a micro ATX bundle (Foxconn M61PMV) which oddly enough doesn't fit in my ATX case I've had forever and secondly The case PSU isn't compatible (has a 20 pin power connector but the motherboard requires a 24 pin connector).
I've also got an ASUS EAH4670 HD card so I 'believe' I need at least a 400w PSU.
Rather than get ordering and bugger it all up again, would someone be kind enough to spec me please??
I promise I'll actually read about what I order in future!!
