Hi all,

Fancy upgrading from my naff 2000xp and 9600pro... reckon I could spare about £500 but no more at the moment. Need to start utilizing my HD tv :p

Will need the CPU, RAM, Mobo, PSU, graphics... have got everything else. My HDDs are IDE, but I presume most motherboards are fine with this?

Kind of out of touch, I know I want to be going the conroe route...

What's the deal with tommorow? ATI releasing a new graphics card? Are we expected a graphics card price drop asap?

Cheers

Change the motherboard and the PSU and you'll be sorted :)

The reason I went for that mobo and PSU was in case you wanted to go SLi :)
