Spec'd myself...

Sherbs · 20 Feb 2007 at 23:06

Anything I should change. £700 is really my limit.

Hi , Maybe change the hard drive? Maybe Seagate Or Western Digital ? I think it would be a wise move. But its up to you !

Awesome! I'll update my spec, and as a bonus the review says its nearly as quiet as the Spinpoint.

Jay123 · 20 Feb 2007 at 23:15

Hehe

Enjoy

Jay!

Nice tried and tested spec. Buy it

Bigger cooler actually. Get a tower or cnps9700. You can stretch 15-20 quid.

Sherbs · 20 Feb 2007 at 23:59

Hows the Gcard looking? Cheers for your comments!

OCZ Ram here same spec/price

What say you?

joeyjojo · 21 Feb 2007 at 00:48

I'd stick with the Geil, change the cooler, and buy an x1900 xtx from the members market for the same price as this cut-down "pro"

DBT85 · 21 Feb 2007 at 01:11

nice spec, all i'd honestly suggest is check out other suppliers and save a neat 50 quid.

Nice spec SherberT*. & I'd keep the X1950 Pro

Sherbs · 21 Feb 2007 at 08:11

Shame its AGP. Otherwise i'd keep it.

Aelred89 · 21 Feb 2007 at 08:56

Looking good matey, i'm building a similar spec atm, same ram, mobo, hdd, cpu cooler and psu

Although i've gone for the E6600 and the HIS ATI 1950pro

Hope your build goes well,

Aelred89

EDIT: :eek:

I only payed £99.99 + VAT for the RAM less than a week ago!!! (Wasn't deal of the week either)

Lol, sorry I got confused. I thought you meant my for sale thread.

I've just sold my AGP one in MM. Yeah I think it will be fine.

Jumblemo · 21 Feb 2007 at 11:23

I assume you have an optical drive already?

jammir · 21 Feb 2007 at 11:33

looks good to me, built up same sort of spec for a mate few weeks back

Sherbs · 21 Feb 2007 at 18:07

Yeah I have an optical drive already.
