Spec ready for order? anything else??

[salami1212]

im getting a cheapy comp ready for upgrade when it gets toooo slow.. i dont need anything heavy.. the only 2 things about it is that, should i get a 3200+ or a 3500+ as i will be overclocking in the future and the 3500 is cheaper, and also, is that psu good enough and quiet. As i would like modular but its not essential. and could that psu cope with say 2gb of ram, a 4400+ x2 overclocked and a 7900gt?

anyone??

the psu should be fine, i would go for the 3500, the higher muti will help in over-clocking later on

 

[salami1212]

can the psu take like high end spec?

http://www.extreme.outervision.com/psucalculator.jsp - Heres a PSU Calculator to find out what wattage you need,(Works out as Wattage when everything is 100%) however im sure the psu would be enough to cope with that and most things you upgrade to - unless you went high end crossfire/sli that is.

this has been posted in my thread in the hard drive section, but this question is to do more with my rig.

just wondering, should i get a spinpoint 160mb cache and a 7600gt? or should i get the 250gb cache seagate and keep my 6800gt? as how much faster in "real world" is the 16mb 7200.10?

Cheers
