well ive been needing a gaming computer for quite a while and i finally decided to put some money together and order one, im ordering the parts from overclockers and ive got a mate whos going to build it,

the system includes

Intel Core i5 760 2.80GHz (Lynnfield) (Socket LGA1156) - Retail [BX80605I5760]

Asus GeForce GTX 460 1024MB DirectCU TOP GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card

MSI H55M-E23 Intel H55 (Socket 1156) DDR3 Motherboard

Corsair XMS3 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit (CMX4GX3M2A1600C9) [CMX4GX3M2A1600C9]

Corsair CX 500W ATX Power Supply (CMPSU-500CXUK) [CMPSU-500CXUK]

Samsung SpinPoint F3 1TB SATA-II 32MB Cache - OEM (HD103SJ) [HD103SJ]

LiteOn iHOS104-37 4x BD-ROM Drive (Black) - OEM [IHOS104-37]

OcUK Tsunami Gaming Case - Black

the cost of this is £552 which i think is quite reasonable,

should i order this today or wait until tomorrow to see what product is the festive deal? if i order it today and decide i want to change something for the festive deal can i do that due to the fact the order wont be processed till monday?

and would you guys change anything, ive got a 1tb external harddrive so i dont need anymore memory,


all help is much appreciated

Better brand of board (I've had 2 msi boards fail on me)
Much better case & a PSU that's more or less equal to the Corsair.
Saved a tenner too. :D

Or just get the case on its own & spend another 30 quid on a much better PSU. like this one.
